My poor Darla. Just diagnosed stage 2&3 LP I just came back from the vets where we found out she has stage 3 on her left and stage 2 on her right. She's limping off the 2nd leg as her little knee is swollen. She jumped off the recliner last night after stealing a napkin and she must have landed wrong. They gave us metacam for the next 5days. I'm so torn up. What do I do? A 5k surgery is not in my budget. I've just come home from a 2 week stay at the children's hospital for my special needs son. So my rainy day funds is exhausted. I'm still trying to clean up my credit from my divorce. Darla no longer qualifies for insurance as she now has a pre-existing condition. My vet said that her priority is getting her fixed first. As there are no tares yet. She was scheduled for her spay when my son got really sick. I'm so upset. One of my first questions to the breeder was LP and if her dogs were cleared and if any previous litters had issues. So frustrated. |
