It would not cover the fracture repair and possible diaphramatic hernia repair.
So people i think you need to be more supportive of what she is trying to do for her dog. She is trying to help her but not everybody can afford the thousands and thousands of dollars treatment costs. no body gets a dog expecting it to get a expensive injury in the future. I also agree that it was very rude for someone to call this person's vet to find out what she was doing for her dog. how would you like it if someone did that to you? put yourself in her situation, how would you feel if you just came on a site asking for advise and then had people doubt you and do checks on your personal information and care options. the vet also shouldn't have given you any information. |
I feel everyone is being supportive! The ONLY important issue is Tahoe!! I have offered to help by donating funds, find other vet options, assist in any way I can including help find a rescue IF that is the only option left to help Tahoe. I spoke to the clinic b/c I wanted to find out how to donate funds so Tahoe could get the care he needed - not to pry into her personal business. I did NOT ask about what the owner was doing - just how best to care for Tahoe.
How would I feel if I came for advise and everyone sent prayers, offered to set up donations or hold sales or help me find other vets or rescues that could help my dog - I'd be grateful!
