getting her fixed just doesnt cost that much, especially at these low cost places that take into account ones situation. You may see a difference between your children and the household pet, but both depend on YOU for care and to do the right thing when they are ill. and as i say there are natural things that can help too. prednisone is an excellent low cost medicine for easing the pains of arthritis. i can give you an excellent website on alternative care methods that are cheap and do have a history of helping arthritis.

So you are looking at 60 bucks to spay her at the first source i gave you, plus possibly an exam fee. i made an appointment for her to be spayed, that takes care of the infection source. i called my vet and he said that it sounded like pyro. i understand your worrying about the money, but i have had a dog with the exact same symptoms as your dog. just because your vet said that about your dog, does not mean another isnt capable of handling your dog through an exam. there are short term sedatives that act fast so they can look her over if need be. Most likely they would have to do a quick basic exam, but her symptoms are clearly pyro. There is now way I'm going in debt for a 10 year old mean crippled dog right now and making life harder. Even with insurance his medication has gotten hard to afford it's that tough right now. In fact my youngest son has type 1 diabetes, diagnosed at 3 years old. My children are human a dog is a dog and I don't, can't and won't ever put them on the same level. Todde- In regard to if my child was sick I am not and will never be one of those people. My wife knows from our last visit that this can't happen. Even the Humane Society required the credit insurance thing. We did not find any vet, in fact every one we called other than ours would NOT even do a payment plan. They could have done surgery for $5,000 and we spent days trying to find some place that would help with bill's then. I don't have it.Īlso the dog is about 10 years old and has a problem in her back. As I stated, I'm not just broke I'm flat broke. To go to a new vet you have first time visit fee's and they also require a downpayment if they even do a plan. Our vet told me when we were there last time " that dog is wired wrong, that's all there is too it". This will require an appointment and how this dog is she MUST be sedated for an exam. She has not been diagnosed, so nobody is going to treat her unless they know what is wrong. But there are a few things that still create problems. I'm amazed so many have had such good luck finding cheap care.

please call them today!Ĭ-SNIP (Community Spay/Neuter Initiative Partnership) i cant call or take your dog there, this is the best i can do to help you. if they cant take your dog there, ask if they know any low cost vets closer to your home.

be sure and tell them you think the dog has a pyro infection. if you had a sick child youd have to get her seen, same in this case. With a pyro infection they will spay the dog that generally takes care of the problem.
