Bad Day For Doggie!!



Well today started out just like any other day. I went walking with Deedee and came home to find my 55 to 65 pd dog in my house, which is very unusual ( he is an outside dog ). I asked why he was in the house, and that is when the day changed. Quick history, two days ago while on my way to walk the dogs got out,( yes I have more than one). I called tippy and she came to me but Tex never does and I was late so I let him run,BAD MISTAKE!!! When I came home there he was sitting as he always sits beside the porch. I didn't think anything about it, until this morning. Luke tells me he can't walk. I look him over and sure enough his hip looks very out of place or broken. Well I have called every vet in town and none of them will take payments and they all estimate that it will cost at least 200.00 up to 500.00 and this is without hospital stay and any major surgery. Whats a girl to do? On one hand I say forget it I would only spend that kind of money on my kids.On the other hand I have three kids looking up at me with very sad faces saying ,mom you have to help him he is in pain. If anyone has any ideas on this problem please fill free to comment I need all the help I can get.

you can apply at Care Credit.

Click the link above and it will take you to the website which lists the Altas Palmas Veterinary Clinic as the only one in town that accepts Care Credit. I met the doctor at this place this past weekend to.

There is no interest with CareCredit. I used it for some dental work in the past.

Great day, Kim! You didn't tell me you had a horse for a pet. He is huge!! Tippy is really cute. He is actually smaller than hotshot. I'll be praying you figure something out with Tex. Love ya!
