Sophie
This past October my five-year-old Saint Bernard, Sophie, became very lethargic and quit eating over the course of a few days. I noticed her belly was a little bulged, too. I took her to our vet on a Friday afternoon, and after an ultrasound she was diagnosed with an open pyometra (an infection of the uterus). They said that she would need surgery but that she’d be okay until Monday. She was put on antibiotics and sent home for monitoring through the weekend. Saturday morning
