Layla

[Lindsey]

I posted this to YT and I'll post it here too...

After all we've done, after all the money we've spent, after all the therapies and rules we've been following exactly... today had to happen. We went to pick her up from rehab and usually the vet brings her up, but today she was busy and in a hurry to leave, so I left the papers for her at the front desk and they paged a vet tech to bring Layla for us. Usually that's fine and there's no issues, she gets carried up to us and we take her home. Today, we waited a long time. We were the only people in the waiting room, and then two girls were bringing a dog out. They were walking really slowly. Scott peeked around the corner when he heard "Come on! Come on!" in a baby voice and he immediately rushed over and I followed. There's Layla, trying to drag herself across a slippery tile floor, with a leash looped around her little neck. We were both in shock and he scooped her up while they were telling us how cute she is! We just threw the leash off her neck and put her in her carrier and left. I cried all the way home. Do they realize she CAN'T WALK? She just had SPINAL SURGERY! She is absolutely not supposed to be dragging herself right now. We have no idea how far or how long she was dragging. I am just so crushed, that goes against everything we're trying to follow for her.

They should know better!!!!
