Oh no, I’m really sorry to hear about what you and your puppy are going through. It sounds very distressing, and I can understand your concern about the situation. When it comes to veterinary care, any mistake or complications during surgery should be openly discussed with you by your vet. It's important to have a clear understanding of what happened and why your puppy requires a second surgery.
Complications can arise from several situations, such as unexpected reactions to anesthesia, internal bleeding, or incomplete procedures. Your vet should take responsibility for any errors, and often, they may offer a resolution, whether it's through reduced fees or other means of assistance.
At home, ensure your pup stays comfortable. Watch for signs of infection like redness, swelling, or discharge at the surgical site. Loss of appetite, lethargy, or unusual behaviors could also indicate a concern.
Sometimes, seeking a second opinion helps you gain clarity and confidence in your pet’s care. If your puppy’s condition seems to worsen, don’t wait to seek emergency care.
For further advice and personalized support, consider booking a video consult with one of our Dial A Vet professionals. We’re here to help both you and your puppy get through this safely.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
