I begged her to take the dog there and to NOT EUTHANIZE him because she could not get a vet to diagnose what the dog had, or to surrender the dog, I even spoke to the person at my vet that handles rescues to see if they would accept this dog. I did this so she would have a choice and not EUTHANIZE. So I AM NOT RECOMMENDING NOR ADVISING PPL TO USE PENN , YET REFUSING TO USE THEM MYSELF. Ya know, it's really funny how in trying to help other ppl, my issue is getting twisted all out of context. (posting before I loose this) |
I am not twisting anything out of context. She seems to be dragging her feet about a specialist just as I see you doing. Sorry if that makes you want to lose it...it is simply how *I* see it. The excuses you make about your vet just don't cut it with me. You are making a choice to treat without a diagnosis. I don't really know what your vet has said to you about that. I would be surprised that a vet would not even mention further testing on a pup who has had these issues for 17 months!!!
Bottom line is he is yours and you will do as you will do just like that person. Honestly, if she chooses to euthanize, it is much better than letting a pup suffer. I asked her to reconsider because he is young, but I was not going to shove that in her face...and not going to shove surrendering him in her face either. I suggested what I believe to be good things to do.....just as I and many others have done for you on this thread.
