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.

Damn, best of luck with the wheelchair route, maybe it'll help relieve some pressure and help him out.
I was really worried about something like this with our little dude recently, he was really hurting and it seemed like it was his back, but x-rays showed he had kidney stones that were causing him the pain. Once they passed he was back to normal. It was a huge relief.

The bullet hit her rib cage and went into her stomach.....took her the Vet school and they performed emergency surgery in the middle of the night to save her from bleeding out internally.i had to ask God to forgive my neighbor or I would have killed him but he still owes me the $1600 for the surgery when we moved out of town after Katrina.
