When my Jack came down with kidney disease I never discussed it with anyone I know. Most of them would have never understood or even considered spending what I did to give him an extra 19 months of life. Most of them wouldn't have even done the daily sub-q fluids either. I just couldn't live with myself doing anything less. People like that should be banned from ever owning a pet. |
I think that's part of the reason so many people like Yorkietalk, most regulars here are really involved with their dogs, and think of them like family members, so they can empathize easily when our babies are ill. No one will criticize us for spending too much on care, that’s for sure! I’m sure a lot of the “guests” think we are nuts though!
I think that's why good breeders want to know all about past pets you've had. Of course, with most breeders, if you have the money you get the dog.
