Lol borscht is basically beet soup. I'm not a huge fan of it but I will eat it anyway.

I will give Layla a big kiss when she wakes up!

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!!!!

OMG Lindsey, I can't imagine what a shock that was, I would have been livid. You are going to talk with the Dr about this and find what is going to be done about it.
You have worked so hard to get Layla to where she is, I pray that they didn't cause any harm to her. Please talk to the vet and get to the bottom of this, you have been through so much. I don't post much but i love reading your updates on Layla and i pray for all of you.

I don't even know what to say! I am so sorry this happened and that Layla was treated that way.

Please post as soon as you speak to the vet, and know that you are getting enough prayers from us here to bring her through, no matter what!

Give Layla a kiss and hug from me, and tell her how much I love her!

Scott is calling the vet this morning. He said last night he heard the receptionist call twice for someone, and the last time he heard her say "Isn't there ANYONE around that could bring her up?" and it sounded like the girl on the other end just said she would do it. So I don't think she was an animal attendant.

Scott left a message for the vet to call him back. Today is one of my bad days and I just feel like crying. I forgot Layla's pee pads at home and Scott wouldn't turn around to get them when we were only 10 seconds away, so I will have to either try to express her outside and not know if I'm getting any out, or express her on a pile of paper towel in the bathroom...

The vet finally called back. She feels terrible about what happened and apologized a lot. She is going to find out who brought her up, and make sure it doesn't happen again. She is letting everyone know about it and putting measures in place to make sure nobody brings animals up when they don't know their background or how to properly handle them. Too bad we can't go back in time before it happened to Layla.
