There’s no reason to put him down now if he really is in no pain and is acting ok. I’d at least give the wheelchair a shot. 5500 for a procedure that has a good chance of not working is fricking stupid

I wish money were no object but it is. So, I'm right there with you. The wheelchairs are only a few hundred dollars and I'm totally fine with that. The Vet School bill to look at him and give him a little medicine was almost $200. By the way, I'm not complaining about the Vet School. They are great and have wonderful staff that have helped us in the past with other dachshunds. This just costs a lot to do.

And LSU Vet somehow is 100% higher on everything than any other private vet in town.
