Emergency Food Bloat: Gypsy’s Survival Story

By Ottawa Animal Emergency & Specialty Hospital

Meet the incredible Gypsy! 🐾

This sweet 8-year-old German Shepherd mix gave us quite a scare recently. Gypsy was rushed to see us in shock after indulging in a bit too much human food, leading to a severe case of food bloat. Adding to the complexity, Gypsy also manages hypothyroidism.

Our team acted fast to stabilize her before heading straight into emergency surgery. The culprit? 1.6 kg of food removed from her stomach! 😮

Gypsy is now recovering comfortably at home. She’s a total sweetheart, and we’re happy we could be there to help her get back on her paws!
