I'm sorry you feel you have to rehome your baby.

Well, what the vet said is that he didn't recommend her to be put under anestesia (sp?) because of the pneumonia. He said that it is a chance, and if we risk it now, she might not make it out of surgery. He said it's best to wait until she is better. But IF i wanted to go ahead and risk it, that they would have to have specialist there and that the cost of that surgery with all the extra attention she needs would be in the 1000's.

SO I don't know what is going on with her tooth right now.
But I really can't afford another $100.. Zoie isn't my only financial responsibility. Vet bills are not the only expense.. it's everything together adding up, and other financial issues that together, it's making a huge impact, and I need to get myself out of this situation, otherwise I will end up in the gutter with two homeless yorkies
