She thinks it was just a sprain that should start feeling better in a few days. In the mean time, I could give him the pain meds I have leftover from his surgery.

Thank God, because after spending $2,000 on his surgery, another vet visit with an x-ray would've meant a credit card over the limit. I've spent a lot on him in vet bills, maxing out a credit card, having to get a personal loan, and eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and ramen for a month.

But go ahead and call me irresponsible with my dog.

That's good news. I am very happy for you and hope he heals nicely and
soon. Sorry, I get frustrated when someone's pet needs medical assistance
and some treat it like it's not the most important thing at the time.
I am glad things worked out for both of you.
Hugs to Fritzy.
