Seeing an animal experiencing distress is never easy especially if you’re an animal lover. However, it is reassuring to know that amazing people like Dr. Jeff exist. Veterinarians like him genuinely care about these animals and do the best that they can to help.
Dr. Jeff goes to great lengths to assure the health and survival of the animals under his care. There was also a day when he did his best to revive a dog that was on the operating table at his clinic.
When he first saw the dog, he checked and did not detect a heartbeat, so he immediately tried to revive him. A nurse then informed him that the dog had diarrhea and vomiting the day before. The animal was brought in by his fur parents he frequently fell.
When the dog was finally conscious, a number of tests were conducted to find out why his heart actually stopped beating for a few minutes. That was when they finally found out that his fragile lungs were filled with fluid.
The vet said that when the dog’s lungs were not functioning properly but his heart is so the dog still has a good chance of survival. However, when the dog’s heart stops beating, the veterinarian must intervene swiftly to resuscitate the animal. This is precisely what happened.
Thankfully, Dr. Jeff was able to revive the dog. His quick thinking helped extend the dog’s life. The dog was already in her senior years so the vet advised the pet owners that their dog need a great deal of care.
She is already fragile and needs particular care. She is not supposed to live that long, but the removal of lung fluid has prolonged her life by a few months. That is more than sufficient time to spend with family and friends.
