Hi everyone

I have been on this site just reading peoples posts and am really impressed with all of you

I want to find out a little about yorks mine is 15 and He is not doing well I took him to the vet for an ear infection last month, they gave me pain meds because i said i wouldnt leave there office without any because while i had him at home before i knew he had an ear infection he was crying and crying and they did give him a shot and then also sent him home with antibiotics and pain meds He took a good week and 1/2 before he truly stopped crying, well now he is doing again his ears are ok but she did say he seemed to have a host of problems and we were about to put him down when i took him in for his ear. But then i thought what if that is all his crying was? Well now he still crys and he stands and stares at nothing he cant see well and he paces back and forth all day i put him on his bed and say now lay down and he does for a few minutes then gets up and crys and walks around the house he lost his bowls he barks to go pee yet when he comes in he does his other business in here he is probably ready to be put down yet i dont want to do it if his ear infection isnt gone? he had antibiotics and he doesn't cry while itching his ears like he did when he had the infection i am scared, like i said the vet seemed as though i shouldnt even fix his ear ache for he has more problems then just that? i am confused by her i didnt like her My husband thinks i am being selfish by saying he needs to be put down yet i know he has pain in his stomach cuz he lays down for a few seconds then moves and he'll do this till i prop his tummy and him just right and he'll fall asleep I cant afford the vet its 40 dollars just to walk in the door then more money after they see him? i am just stressed over him any one can help i would love it.
