Clinical Examination

The vet performs a clinical exam and finds the following:

  • Duke is dull and cooperative (even though he is normally aggressive and impossible to examine).
  • The heart rate is 200 beats per minute and the mucous membranes appear pale.
  • Duke's abdomen is visibly distended and there is a firm oblong viscous pressed firmly against the left body wall.
  • Duke is making unproductive retching attempts.
