| Rescued Yorkie Needs Cheaper Vet Care! Hi, Does anyone know of a good cheaper vet? I want to rescue this male Yorkie who was abused. He was kicked and therefore his hip is dislocated and he needs surgery but I don't have a TON of money. Perhaps, someone knows something else besides surgery that might be just as effective to helping him. I read somewhere they might be able to put a tight paste like cast around the leg to hold it in place while it heals for a couple weeks but I don't know if that would even be possible in his case. Any help ASAP would be much appreciated! Thanks Alot, Ashley |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Hi, I live in Gurnee and a vet in Lake Villa helped out a friend of mine's 15 year old yorkie with a major dental. I think it's called All creatures animal care of Lake Villa. It's on Rte 83. Keep us posted and if I can be of any help let me know.

| I am not able to find the all creatures animal care in lake villa on route 83. Are you sure that's the name? Or do you know the website right off hand? I was going to look and see if it had any pricing information on it. The yorkie rescued needs hip surgery and I don't have a ton of money! Thanks! |

| Do you know the website of the all creatures animal care with dr. mckenna? Because I thought I found the website but I don't think it was right because they did not list dr. mckenna. Also with the dental your friend's Yorkie got- Was it done for whatever she could pay or like half off what it normally would have been? How much did he help her with the dental? Because the surgery the surgery is like 1500. |

| With a couple in Chicago! They are keeping the male yorkie on cage rest until they can find someone who can take the dog and get the hip surgery done that he so desperately needs! I wanna help but I cannot pay 1500 for a surgery otherwise I would take him in a minute. He's supposedly really really sweet despite being abused! |
