Brownie, a first-time mother, recently delivered six puppies. Her owners brought her in after she began straining and having abnormal urinations post-delivery. Emergency radiographs revealed a fetus still in her uterus. Brownie was suffering from dystocia, or a difficult birthing.

Lincoln F.
Lincoln presented to VREC for trouble breathing. In addition, his owners reported that he vomited and were worried he may have ingested a foreign body.
