# Kylie's Story

![In this image is a dog named Kylie, who had a run-in with bloat but was fortunately safe after being rushed to the vet.](//images.ctfassets.net/cy68knbg9g5b/71QHnsgHR5oCV5fcbDvjb9/bbd6b2fb5ff3120971986dc610976ed3/kylie-mixed-breed.webp?)
Kylie's run-in with bloat is a close call.

### Vet Bill: $2,624

### Background

One night Kylie was restless and trying to vomit but was unable to do so. She was rushed to the veterinary ER where X-rays were taken. Her veterinarian diagnosed her quickly with bloat and Kylie was rushed into surgery. She received a gastropexy (also known as stomach stapling) and remained hospitalized for the next four days. Fortunately Kylie's bloat was caught early enough and she made a full recovery.

### Kylie's dad, Michael, said:

"You were amazing during such a horrible time and I still am thankful for you every time I look at her!"
