One of the hardest things to have to do. We came very close to making that decision last week. Our little Doxie was poisoned by the MORONS in our neighborhood that sprayed weed killer everywhere. We noticed she didn't want to eat, which is totally not like her, she loves to eat.....everything. Then she started throwing up. Rushed her to the Vet, did blood tests and Xrays. Blood tests showed a Liver toxicity level of 980. A healthy dog will have a number between 10 and 100. The Doc said if she had been over 1000, she would have strongly suggested putting her down. So lots of drugs and the weirdest thing I've seen, injecting large amounts of water under her skin. She was completely dehydrated and wouldn't drink water, so everyday they would inject the water into her. She looked like a big water ballon. But it worked. Her number dropped to 700, then 400 and now below 100. Just over a grand in Vet bills for this time. But she is our 6000 dollar pooch now. She got Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever right after we rescued her 6 years ago. And she's worth every penny! Oh yeah, she also hurt her back and had acupuncture and chiropractic work done.
She's only seven years old and hope she'll be with us a loooooong time!
