There is no avoiding death if liver shunt isn't taken care of. It may not be immediete, but it WILL happen eventually. and Melody will have a miserable, miserable life until that point.
She NEEDS help. I understand that she loves and doesn't want to give up her baby, but if she can't pay to save her life, THERE IS NO OTHER OPTION. |
Sorry to disagree, but there is a 3rd option: and that is Medication. Dogs that are not good candidates for surgery are put on the medications that Melody is on right now for life.
