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. |
