Thanks for all the support. I am following every lead you guys have given me.
University of Tenn will do the repair for 1800...which is way cheaper than anyone else.
I am going to apply for carecredit and see what happens.
He loves his walks he would go insane without them. He isn't distressed at all and if i try to cut the walk short he gets pissy with me. Yes he is a spoiled brat!!! I think our nightly walk thru the woods is causing the flea issue. I am afraid to use to many chemicals around or on him d/t his shunt. My vet said to treat him like any other dog... and we do ,except for the special diet.
Meghan believe me i will do whatever it takes to save my dog. I apprieciate all your advice. I am a nurse and can afford all the basics for him, his special diet and i take him to the vet on a regular basis. However a surgery bill was not in the puppy budget. There would be way to many homeless pets if the only people who took pets could afford that kind of vet bills. I am grateful you care so much about these little guys. I will even consider a rescue situation if all else fails... but i am excited to find the U of tenn. |
