For people with pets have you ever ran into a situation were your your pet vet bills were high and keep going up? How did you handle it? Do you have a cut off point?
I have a lab that has had ear problems his whole life. Some how he got a Hematoma ( sp? ) on his year. his ear was about two inches thick and full of blood. We took him in and he had Surgery on it. All the pet bills were about $2000. Every thing was good for about a month. I guess the surgery did not work because it's back and worse now.
Te vet wants to do surgery again for another $1500 or so ( might not work ). Or they talked about maybe cuting of his ear. I don't know how much that might cost but i am sure it is a lot. I don't know what to do.
They say I can leave it but it is painfull for him but it won't kill him.
