| I will pay what ever it takes as long as there is a chance to recover. When Gus was attacked last year, vets said that it didn't look good at all, but it wasn't good enough for me. The bill was $886, (which the owners of the other dog paid back) Thank God he didn't need surgery or it would have been about 1,200 more. But if it would have come down to it, I would say do it! I would max out all my cards if I needed to.

| I spent over $600 on a lovable mutt from the pound not a month after we adopted him. Took him in for vaccinations and he wound up with Parvo. We didn't like it but never considered not paying -- he was our responsibility the minute we left the pound. Back then $600 was a lot of money too. But I am sure whatever ours wind up needing, we will do, even if we have to ask for a payment plan. They give so much -- they deserve whatever we can do for them.

| I wanted Me-Me knowing that she would probably need heart surgery that would cost over 3,500. Turned out she didn't need it, but I would have spent it on her in a heart beat. She is so worth it. Our Whitney need to have her stomach looked at to see why she was blowing up and that cost around 1,500. My husband didn't blink at that one either. He is really wonderful when it comes to our yorkies.

| I'd have to yank out a few Visa cards to do this, but I'd spend whatever it frigging took! My babies are worth much more than money to me. And I know, I'd never regret it too. Even with payments out the butt! |

| Whatever it takes. I've already spent more than $3000 on medical bills this year on my pups. They are my babies, a part of my life. I wuold go to the poor house for them.

| Money would not matter if Ninna's life is at stake. I have a savings account and lots of credit cards and if not enough then I will get a home equity line. Same as I would do with my other daughter.

| It's a no brainer... Our furbabies are our babies. They are family. Hubby and I wouldn't have any second thoughts if we have to pay a certain amount to save her life. Whatever it takes.... |
