[Dailydrool] Tacking Bubby's Stomach

[Lilie Basset]

Hi Molly,

Lilie is 12 years old.  When she was spayed her vet suggested tacking 
because, as an emergency vet for many years, she thought it was a good idea. 
We had both Lilie and Daffodil tacked at spaying.

A week ago Thursday, Lilie bloated.  I got her to the vet where she spent 
the day and was successfully treated.  One of the first things that the vet 
said to me when I picked her up was that the tacking held.  Without it?  I 
don't know.  I just know that it gave me peace of mind, and may have saved 
Lilie's life just a few days ago.

I vote for it.  My vet for Lilie did it for no extra charge.  By the time I 
got Daffy, I'd changed vets to one who was closer.  I remember that the vet 
at the time gave me a funny look when I asked for it, but they did it.  I 
think it was an extra $100.  Would I pay $100 for it - YES.

Good luck to Buppy.  Will she have to wear the Cone of Shame?  Take 
pictures - you'll want them later.

Katie, Lilie and Daffodil
