I did NOT ask about what the owner was doing - just how best to care for Tahoe.

How would I feel if I came for advise and everyone sent prayers, offered to set up donations or hold sales or help me find other vets or rescues that could help my dog - I'd be grateful!

I just think that nobody but the owner of the animal in question should call the vet and ask about its treatment/status/care/financial status without permission of the owner. its an invasion of privacy.

I couldn't agree more. Tahoe's well being is the most important issue right now. I too have offered many helpful suggestions and information. I have gone out of my way to provide her with enough resources and choices for the well being of Tahoe. I don't doubt for a second that she LOVES Tahoe. I just truly hope and pray that she does the right thing for his recovery, she has a handful of routes to choose from...

The owner posted that she was looking for information and made numerous statements about her financial situation and was looking for guidance/help. she posted that her vet was telling her that the surgery was going to cost $5000 but she didnt have the funds. I did NOT call her clinic and ask about her financial status - I didnt have too since owner posted her situation, I just offered to help! I did NOT ask for any personal information, nor was I given any.
My intentions were only to help Tahoe.

Tahoe is a real cutie! Thanks for posting those beautiful pictures I will continue praying for your baby and that he has a full recovery. Good, healthy thoughts going your way...
I believe 100% in prayer...God will guide you, and hopefully you'll be guided to a place that will be able to provide the surgery for your baby.

I don't think she called the clinic with intentions to find out personal info about Tahoe's owner. She was trying to help, and was curious if the clinic knew anything about that card to help tahoe.
And everyone knows that it is so easy to be scammed on the internet, and you often have to question someone's credibilty.
I personally don't think she meant to cause problems but meant to try and offer more options to have tahoe treated.
We all come to this site for one thing, and that is because of our love for the yorkies... we would do anything to protect our furbabies and anyone elses if given the chance.
So lets turn this thread around and focus on the real issue and that is trying to come up with a solution to help poor tahoe.
I'm willing to help out if anyone has any suggestions.

Tahoe's Mom has posted a lot of information, regarding how many Vets, what they think, what costs are, pain meds, her struggles and her family. She came here for advise and we are all giving great information to her, we are supporting her and we are trying to understand her decisions and hope that they will benefit for Tahoe.

I understand that surgery is very expensive, believe me, I have my own Yorkie surgeries. But this is not a broken leg, or an allergy. Tahoe is Paralized - this is extremely serious. I have also offered my opions as to what I would do if this were my dog - this is something I would not just wait to see day by day if he gets better. I would be vomitting non-stop, crying non-stop but most importantly, I would be trying to find a way to get him the medical attention he needs in this critical time frame (and I would do what ever it takes).

I agree, She came here looking for advice and prayers. Not for people to call and question her vet. What right does anyone have to do that?
I can see wanting to make sure of the dogs condition if you are helping in paying the vet bill or something like that , But even then asking her for permission first.
I posted a few days ago about both of mine needing vet care and I asked for prayers and needed a shoulder to lean on too. But I would of been very upset if someone did this to me.

Thank you so much for everything...finally someone knows what im taking about...my puppy is getting better...and if he will walk only on 3 legs he is still ur love...plus i think some people on this site forget that i have a baby and husband and i cant afford that much money for surgery right now ..who knows maybe something come up soon and i will get the funds and i will be able to afford it...my vet tells me there is a chance he will get better without surgery...so please pray for him...Kasia

Ditto!!!!

well i spoke with my vet right after you called...you told the you are from yorkie rescue and you just want info about his health...you never told me you are offering a donation and i never asked for any money...after all its my puppy and i just need advice not people calling my vet...please i dont need this right now...you dont know me..if you only ask me if its ok to call my vet...

[YorkieShadow]

wanted to add Ill be praying for your baby and I hope he gets the care he needs to recover. I know its hard when theres no money, I too had to use a credit card. So I do understand where your coming from. but he sounds like he needs help asap and If you think hes in any kind of pain Please take him back and ask if they can set up a payment plan. I know my vets wont do that but some might.. Prayers for you and your sweetbaby

This thread seems to getting out of hand.

Like I have said before, I will continue to pray for Tahoe and I will continue to pray that Tahoe's Mom does the right thing by him. I have offered extremely helpful advise to Tahoe's Mom, I was more than generous with the information I gave her. I can't preach anymore. I will continue to check for updates on Tahoe, but I will keep my comments, opinions and preaches to myself.

Tahoe's Mom, I meant everything I have said to you. If you need me to help out with getting you more information and more choices, then please ask and I would be glad to. I just want the best for Tahoe and I truly hope he gets it.

I think it is horrible to critisize SimplyYorkies for calling the vet. Tahoe's mom SAID to call the vet to get info about Tahoe to make sure it was not a scam. I'm not sure why it is such a contreversy. SimplyYorkies seems like a generous and wonderful person whose upmost concern is Tahoe, just like everyone else here.

My blessings to Tahoe. He will continue to be in my prayers.

I have to agree completely. SimplyYorkies has gone beyond just praying, she has given Tahoe's Mom so much helpful information, resources and offered assistance in all sort of ways.

I have to be honest with you all, I too have been offering help, support, assitance etc to Tahoe's Mom and to be honest, she wasn't really happy with any of it. She has posted all of information on this thread regarding a whole bunch of stuff. Some of it I just can't understand, some of it conflicts with previous posts and it is very confusing as to Vet, Specialists, Pain Meds, No Meds, Not doing Good, Now doing better.

We all just want Tahoe to get the best care he could possibly get. Please stop picking on SimplyYorkie, believe me she has Tahoes best interest and well being in mind, nothing else.
