My 12 year old Husky (go to www.hogs4dogs.com to see her) went in to the vet for a “routine” knee surgery. She was prescribed Previcox. I asked about the side effects and was told none. After a day or so she began not eating, violent vomiting, and strange breathing.

I called the vet immediately, he said stop the Previcox and see if she gets better, I said should we bring her in. "No, just see if her condition changes", I was told.

She began to get worse, so we took her in anyway. They said "She is dehydrated.", so they gave her an IV drip and they said we would be able to pick her up the next day.

Two hours later we received a call that her heart had arrested, and "Sorry".
I noticed you had a case number. Is there a place that one can attempt to complain to?

Thanks, Jay C.
