So sorry to hear that.
Perhaps drop them an email and say something along the lines of you are really disappointed but thank them for considering you and ask for feedback from your interview and that you will look out for further opportunities with their company.

Glad the dogs are on the mend.
Sorry about job 2 and about the interview.
Hope you have a lovely time with your DS.
