Glad to read that your pups are doing better. Who is this Vicky you mention in your OP? Is that someone who fed your pups something wrong and they got sick?
Also wanted to mention that most pet insurance is unlike people health insurance. You must first pay out of pocket, then you get reimbursed. So if you lack the funds, insurance will not help you. I suggest you look into Care Credit that Ladyjane linked. It's a credit card with a high interest rate, but only if you don't pay off the balance before the promotional period, which if you do, the interest is ZERO. I have used it many times. When I fell on hard times, all my credit cards canceled me, but CC did not, probably thinking if I really needed it they would have had me by the balls LOL. |
Oh my...yes, you do know about tube feeding. eeek
Good point about insurance. Good to have both....you definitely need money up front when dealing with these things. These yorkies can get the craziest things....so many of us here know all about that.
