Martini is up and wagging her tail! She still has a long road ahead of her, but it looks promising! Prayers have been answered! Thank you all so much!

Now she needs to raise the money for the surgery down payment which is $220. I suggested asking 11 friends for $20 donation to Martini or trying to apply for Care Credit Card. She is doing both..... Thank the lord for answered prayers! :)
GREAT NEWS!!!! So happy to read of this :love:.

I hope she is able to get the funds quickly. How very sad. I hope Martini makes a quick and complete recovery.

Praying for Martini and hope everything goes well. Susan

How is Martini, any update?

I so hope Martini can get the pin surgery...this little kiddo has been through so much, poor thing.

Deb1 07-27-2013 04:54 AM
Good Morning!

Martini is doing well but in pain. She needs surgery and it will be today or Monday. It is looking like they will amputate unless she can raise enough money for the pinning of the bone.

I will let everyone know what her decision. Prayers are always welcome for Martini and Ashley as the decision is very difficult. Thank you all so much for the concerns! :)

normarae63 07-27-2013 05:03 AM
Please send on our best wishes no matter the decision, although I'm praying it can be repaired.

:thumbup: $200 for a down payment for the treatment is less than the cost of a dental. I would hope someone would have at least that in an emergency doggie fund. I don't have "real" jewelry, but if need be, I could find something to sell for $200. If not, a rescue group can always step in.

My heart breaks for this little sweet poodle. I pray for a healing. I do not trust pit bulls at all. They are known to attack for no reason. I would never have one in my home. Never with children. I am so sorry to hear about this accident and I do hope that little dog and person bit will recover.

capt_noonie 07-27-2013 09:10 AM
Sorry but that is absolutely not true about pit bulls. Don't blame the breed. It's irresponsible people who have given that beautiful breed a bad rep. ANY type of dog can bite and attack.

Deb1 07-27-2013 09:15 AM
I just talked to the vet office and Martini is doing great considering everything. They said she is such a sweetheart!

My niece just moved to Nebraska a couple months ago. She is trying to make a new start in a new city. She has a couple jobs but no money saved.

The person with the pit bull has not been held responsible except for having it put down.

I am so thankful for all of you YT members for the prayers and concerns for Martini. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Many hugs and blessings to all!

Deb

Thought you said the pittie owner was her mother? Did I read wrong?

CouversMom 07-27-2013 09:23 AM
Poor Martini :( So the pit bull was her mom's dog?

I hope she is able to afford to save the leg.

Sammy Mommy 07-27-2013 09:34 AM
Maybe something can be worked out with the vet's office like a down payment and signing a contract that x amount will be paid each month. I don't know, just a suggestion. Hope all goes well for Martini.

Nancy1999 07-27-2013 09:35 AM
I'm so sorry, sending prayers, I hope she can raise the necessary money.

MomtoJasper 07-27-2013 10:20 AM
I'm praying that your niece can raise the funds needed to save Martinis leg. And very, very soon!!

I love pit bulls and will always defend them. I am against BSL and think a lot of stupid owners own them. However, pit bulls are genetically pre-disposed to dog aggression (NOT human aggression, two completely separate things). Many times Pitties do not show DA until they reach maturity, but being a responsible Pit Bull owner is knowing your breed and it's possibility for being DA. Any reputable Pit breeder or rescue will tell you this, it's also why they advise NO dog parks no matter how friendly your Pit may seem, because no matter what the Pit will always get blamed. But I've known of people whose Pits get along great and then around 3-4 years old, something snaps, and once that happens, they don't easily forgive and WILL kill and do not give up in a dog fight. Many Pit Bull owners crate and rotate.

I'm very sorry for what happened to Martini. I honestly can't imagine. My thoughts are with your family.

Praying for Martini. Poor baby. :(

UPDATE:

Martini's surgery is scheduled for Monday! There has been an amazing amount of donations sent to the clinic! Reviewing the x-rays, the vet feels the leg will have to be amputated. The damage to the muscles are too great to save the leg. But the good news is she will get the surgery she needs.

I just talked to my niece and she is so thankful for everything. Her prayers were answered and she is just happy to be able to save Martini. The out pouring of love is evident!

I am so thankful for all the prayers, concerns and support that YT has given! Many have gone above and beyond in the care & support of Martini! God Bless you all!

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!

normarae63 07-27-2013 11:36 AM
Sorry to hear the vet feels the leg can't be saved but so glad she'll get the care she needs. She'll adjust.

We had a 3 legged kitty who never knew he was different than any other cat. He used to outrun the other cats in the neighborhood chasing squirrels! :)

The pit bull was owned by her biological mother. I don't know why she won't help with the cost and my niece isn't telling. My niece is adopted by my husband's sister when she was 8 years old. She had a very bad childhood, but has recently reunited with her biological mother who had the dog that attached Martini. It is a long complicated story......

I am happy to hear that the surgery will go ahead, but sorry to hear that amputation is the only answer.

Please get your neice to buy health insurance for her pet. That would be a great thing to have happen after this most unfortunate incident.

Sweet Martini is in my thoughts. It sounds like many people stepped up to help your niece. It sounds like things are looking brighter for her.
