Please help us!!! Irvin is our 4 month old Yorkie puppy. He took a fall and has fractured his little leg. The only way to fix him is to have surgery that is very costly. He was a graduation gift to my 5 year old daughter. We just relocated and would hate to lose him. He's the only little piece of "home" that we have. We are in DIRE need to have a complex surgical procedure. Without it, he will lose his leg or be surrendered. |

Apply for Care Credit, or any credit card... and start selling anything you have of value. |
I would definitely suggest applying for Care Credit. It is not fair that he should suffer just because you can't afford the surgery. If you can't get Care Credit, I would recommend that you surrender him to a rescue that can afford the care that he needs. |
Perhaps you can find help with these links. If not, I strongly urge you to contact a reputable rescue and surrender him for appropriate care. While I know it hurts to do that, he needs care ... good luck to you. Oh, and if you choose a rescue, in Florida, I would suggest United Yorkie Rescue. They will fix the leg. Some groups will amputate and I find that to be disturbing. Feel free to message me if you need information.

And I am very sorry for your dilemma. Did you not buy pet insurance? If not,well. You should have. And also threads soliciting donations will be deleted. |

And I do hope this OP does find a way to help out this pup. |
I am in Atlanta. Every emergency vet in the area has applications for Care Credit right on their front desk. If you don't see it, ask. |
Just curious: What does a 5-year-old graduate from that warrants a puppy as a gift? How did the puppy break it's leg? Your first post was last night & you haven't come back on to give us an update? |

Uhm duhh of we could use insurance we wouldn't even be discussing this. FYI we has him just over a month and the insurance we applied for can't be used because he was injured during the waiting period. |
Siba3000 I see that you are on line, talk to us tell us what is happening. I'm thinking that you got a Yorkie for your 5 year olds Kindergarden graduation and you really don't know a lot about Yorkies. It doesn't matter NOW what happened but could you tell us so we can try to help you? We often see people who get pups and don't know a thing about them and then like you come on here begging for help...unfortunately we see it a lot...I was once like you, I had no idea they had Pet Insurance, I didn't know what kind of specialist to take my dog to...heck I didn't even know there were specialists for dogs until I came here and all these people taught me so much.... There is so much information here for you to learn, if you tell us what is going on. |
I just want to say that some of you come off more condescending than concerned. When someone is going through an emergency with their pet the last thing they want to read is what they should have done. It doesn't change what did happen. Smh. You people disgust me with your rude comments. To whoever said why I didn't give an update since last night...I'm sorry I have a LIFE that doesn't include sitting on the PC all day replying to threads. I was busy caring for my dog and child if you MUST know :-) Update: the dog is fine. He's splinted. I had a dog break a leg before and it healed in a cast. Since his leg isn't as badly broken as that dog, we are trying to splint it. Vets always push surgery. I'm a nurse and I know sometimes it's all about whatever makes more money. For those of you who were sincerely concerned, thanks. |
