We had to have one of our family dogs put down yesterday. We have had him longer that my oldest child, he was a little over five. He was a very sweet mutt we got from the humane society. He was a good dog that never wanted to do much more than to lay around and be loved.
He got out a few days ago and ate garbage and started acting funny. We brought him to the vet and he had a collapsed lung and a ruptured diaphragm, his intestines had moved into his chest cavity. He had been hit by a car three years ago, we had paid 700 dollars when he got hit to a different vet to tell us he was good to go home, just bruised. Apparent the garbage just upset an already ongoing condition he had from the accident. We did not have money for surgery and informed him that we would have to have him put down. The vet did surgery for free and attempted to save him but he was already too far gone. God bless the vet for trying when we couldn't afford it. For everything he did he only charged us $36 dollars and it meant a great deal that he did his best to save our family member just out of the kindness of his heart.
You will be missed shogun.
