do vets typically refuse to show xrays?

Reddit Animals

took my dog to the vet the other day because he seemed like his back legs were kinda weak or something. At the vets office she pressed on his back area and he didnt really make any sounds but he like "breathed heavily" when she pressed on his stomach and then wanted to do an xray of his abdomen. I say ok to the xray and they take him out of the room, when the tech comes back in she says the vet said his liver looks enlarged and they wanted to do bloodwork.
