| Need Advice I don't know if anyone out there will have any good advice, but I figured I would try. Little Zoie is still off and on sick, and her bills are becoming too outrageous for me to handle.. does anyone know of some options for me, besides the obvious (not keeping her). Any good advice appreciated. |

| Dena I haven't gotten a chance today but I will certainly look into assistance programs for you. I know how much her bills have skyrocketed to, so if I find anything worth looking into I'll let you know. In the meantime give the kiddos kisses for me.

| So sorry Zoie is having such a hard time. I sure wish I could offer some advice, but I can't. I'll just pray that she improves and your financial worries lessen. Wookie must be so worried about his little sister. Hugs to all.

| I'm so sorry about the vet bills...There are several financial assistance programs that can help. Have you tried CareCredit? IMOM has a good program from what I hear... What happened to your baby?

| I have pet insurance now.. but they wont cover the cost before. I have care credit, and it's maxed out. I can't get any more.. and I can barely afford what I have now. She just keeps getting better then worse, better then worse. And they only way to really tell if she is better is to get x-rays every 3-4 weeks.. which is about $300 every time.. so it's adding up so fast, and i just can't take it much more. shes on antibiotics right now.. I think she has about 2 weeks left, i hope she is better after that. Last edited by Dena; 06-25-2007 at 05:52 PM. |

| i have seen on ebay where people have asked for donations from paypal accounts. How about a local rescue? Look for one on petfinder.com and see if they can help out |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Sorry to hear you are having such a rough time. I don't know of any good options for you. Wish I did. (If I happen into some of the $100M+ Powerball tomorrow night, your worries are over. ) In the meantime, thoughts and prayers are with you and Zoie. |

| Awww, I didn't realize you were going through this I feel terrible for you and for little Zoie. I have nothing to add in the advice department, just yorkie hugs and prayers. Keep us posted. (is there a thread on Zoie's illness somewhere?)

| Zoie is still coughing.. and now I just noticed her gums are getting like black stuff on them... I can't continue this anymore.. I need help. I can't keep her anymore.. I just can't afford any more bills for her. It's been more than 6k for a little 7 month old.. this is never going to end.. What do I do?? I need some major advice on this. I'm so behind on paying her bills I can't even take her in to check out her teeth |
