I am so glad to hear about the improvement. I asked were in NY you are b/c I live in Albany and have a great vet I would recommend but it sounds like you already have one (and I'm pretty far away)
Unfortunately we at Yorkietalk have had instances where new members will post about a serious injury and it turns out to be a scam. We are a little cautious but nobody here intentionally meant to hurt your feelings or be rude.
We are a group that rallies behind our members and we know the power of good thoughts/prayers so we will send them to you and your Tahoe for a speedy recovery.
