Since being laid off this vet was being nice and not charging me full prices but still. If he is just "guessing" what is wrong with her every time I bring her in, I don't need him being nice and helping me with if its hurting her in the end! The vet from last night who I spoke to after said " Well I just wanted to try giving her a chance at life and thought I could fix her and keep her as my pet ". I understand that and I thank him for doubling looking her but if she was fixable I should of never been told she wasn't and then have her to be put down! He said he wasn't there first to exam her so he can't say anything about the other vet all he can say is she could be having allergies, parasites or something less serious. I just think that if she was really as bad as he said she was why would this vet wan to take the time and money to fix her if it was THAT bad. He obviously checked her out and came to this conclusion before having that phone call placed to me. I mean when I got there he had all the stuff out on the table to put her down, it was terrible, I just grabbed her and left as fast as I could, I just didn't know what else to do. I was in shock and disbelief, I even asked my fiancee if I was dreaming because I couldn't believe what was going on!
Doesn't he think you wanted to give her a chance at life? I just can't believe this. I would do what TeresaM said and write everything down. See another vet and if this is something totally curable you might have good grounds for a lawsuit. This is deplorable! If this man suspected that whatever might be wrong is treatable he should have tried to do something for the family and the pet. Whatever happened to human kindness and compassion and doing something out of the goodness of your heart rather then for the almighty dollar. Man this makes me mad too!
