Thank you for sharing Lola's story. Hopefully it will encourage pet owners to research insurance policies and to see the benefits of how important pet insurance can be. I'm so sorry Lola's having to go through this. Praying your vet will be able to reset her leg without surgery and that she recovers quickly. |

Oh poor Lola! Did she have the surgery today? Thank you for sharing your story. It really pushed me to get insurance for Izzy! I am going to research this week. |
So sorry about Lola's accident. Hope her surgery goes well & she'll have a smooth speedy recovery! |
I have Insurance but how is Lola today??? So sorry to hear about her accident!! |
I have pets best from boise idaho, very happy with them |
I signed up for pet insurance the day Jess broke her leg. Unfort to late for that but at least I have it for future problems. If you need any experience with broken legs and recoup message me. I went through it this year with Jess and it was a bad break as well. She is now running around like it never happened. Go Red Sox! |
I'm so sorry for what your little girl has had to go through. You are very wise to advise people to get pet insurance. Although it is true the insurance only reimburses the vet and you have to pay the bill up front...at least you know the money is there. Some people have a credit card set aside for just such an emergency. They can pay the bill with the credit card and then pay off the credit card with the insurance payment. You do what you have to do. The other thing is that some people seem to think that some of us are over protective of our little babies but just the fact that the OP's little girl broke her leg by jumping off a bed shows that they can be fragile. We can't always be there to protect them from every possible danger, try as we may. |

She is doing really well but getting a little dirty! I'm trying to think of the best way to clean that little baby. Wet wipes? I can't get the cast wet:) |

Thinking of you and little Lola and her pink cast. May her recovery be swift and complete. :) |
Oh how I wish I even knew about pet insurance 17 years ago. It would have saved me thousands for Presley. His first pancreatic attack was at age 7. The vet told me about insurance afterwords, but when I applied he was turned down. 10 years later and we have spent $20k on his medical care. Not that it wasn't worth every penny. I still have him. My next dog will be insured. No doubt about it. |

Oh, I agree with you. We thought Gracie was going to be about 8lbs when we bought her. Well, it took her well over a year to reach 5lbs. Those months when she was a tiny tot made me a nervous wreck. We hadn't had her too long when she took a tumble off the bed while wrestling with a kitten her own size. It was an emergency trip to the vet. She had quite a limp for a little over a week but thank God nothing was broken. She was always doing dare devil stunts that just about took my breath away. I really think a more realistic weight gives the the sturdiness they need to be a bit more resilient. |

Oh wow! I just now read your thread. I am so sorry to hear that sweet little Lola has been through all of this. It's great to see that she is on the mend. |
Sorry to hear about little Lola. My Gina jumped off the bed after we replaced the carpet with hardwood. Cruciate ligament (sp) severed. No insurance. I got Zoey insurance the first week I had her. Have had to use it every year since and the pay back more than covers the cost of the entire year's premium. Hope Lola's recovery is a speedy one. |
I am very happy that surgery wet well and Lola is recovering nicely with a cute pink cast. Whenever someone here has to keep a Yorkie on crate rest, I wonder how they manage it! I had to do it once for only 1 week and it was the longest week. Quote:

Hi everyone:) I just wanted to update you on Lola! She had the surgery (almost two weeks ago) and she is doing very well. It is very, very hard to keep a 7 month old yorkie calm. She still gets around really well, even with a cast. She just had her 1st checkup since surgery and the vet said that she is healing perfectly, and will even be able to get her cast off early! I believe it's going to be on for 16 more days! Not bad at all:) When she came home from her surgery Teddy was so incredibly excited to see her. Usually he is pretty indifferent to her, but this time his little stub tail was wagging, and he was just full of excitement. Sneezing, jumping up and kissing her. It was the sweetest thing. I wish I had a video of it, I never expected it. |
The day that I brought Lola to the ER 1 Attachment(s) Here is my sweetie with her first cast. Look at that sweet little pup! |
Her bag is all packed for surgery... 1 Attachment(s) and yes, I am an overpacked! She has her bed, fiji water, food, toys, kissee collar and a tee shirt of mine! |
The day I got Lola back from the hospital:):) 1 Attachment(s) My friend had to pick her up for me as I was booked solid at the salon and they didn't know in advance when she could be picked up. I was so excited to see her little face I started crying! |
I took the stairs away from the bed so they wouldn't use them.. 1 Attachment(s) But clearly it didn't work as both dogs climbed them and sat on them. They are now on top of my dining table (the stairs, not the dogs:) |
Aw, I love that shot of Teddy and Lola on the stairs. It must be driving Lola nuts to not be jumping right now. |
