Rain Cha-Ching: The million dollar dog tooth!

Daisy really should be the poster child for why people should buy from a GOOD breeder and not a BYB or puppy mill. I've spent tens of thousands of dollars on her over the years for her many medical problems...but...now, I'm facing this:

THE MILLION DOLLAR DOG TOOTH

Daisy broke a tooth on a marrow bone a while back. I figured gee, I'll take her up to Boston and see the Board Certified Vet Dentist so I could make sure my little baby with all her problems had the safest and best care. I had a consult that went well.

Then Daisy tricked me. Her blood work came up with liver enzymes that were not good and urine issues. This led to a repeat of blood work and a better look at the urine. We found that Daisy had an infection of E. Coli. She went on 3 weeks of antibiotics that were not cheap.

I finished the antibiotics and we went left more blood earlier this week and more urine. I just got the call and her urine is not good

Daisy now needs a spa day on Monday with the Radiologist. We need to find out what is going on in her bladder and kidneys before she can safely undergo anesthesia. She needs another antibiotic too!

This is a million dollar tooth. One friend of mine suggested I eat Ramen Noodles for a while to pay for all this. Another friend suggested I talk to Karen about buying some boots with fur for Daisy

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR But she is worth it. My little cutie patootie.
