Around the first week in March 2012, we noticed that our 4yr old Siberian Husky was having trouble getting his hind quarters up to a standing position. Although Merlin didn't seem to be in any pain, We scheduled to have Merlins hips Xrayed on March 14th,2012 at Dr Dhaliwal’s Office. On March 11th, we had to take Merlin to the animal emergency hospital because of bloody diarrhea. The ER took an abdominal Xray and said to take it to Dr. Dhaliwal on Monday. The Xrays was dropped off and soon after we received a call saying that Merlins spleen was enlarged and had to be removed. Dr. Dhaliwal did surgery on Wednesday March 14th, 2012 and removed a 10lb spleen! He said it was the biggest one he has ever seen! We picked up Merlin later that evening and within a few days, he was feeling much better and starting to get back to his oldself. The biopsy showed no tumors or cancer. We are very grateful to Dr. Dhaliwal and his staff for saving Merlin. Now we will have many more years with our pet. We recommend the Michigan Avenue Animal Hospital to everyone who is looking for a place that truly puts the health of your pet first.
