Paws In Paradise Pet-sitting

07/20/2024

Hi, I don't know if anyone can help or not, but when we brought one of our dogs to the vet yesterday, we were told she needs to have four or five teeth removed, at an estimated cost of $1,7000+ to $2,700+! My husband was really angry about it today, saying she might only have a few years left anyway, and so he doesn't want to have her have the surgery.
I have spent the last over two hours searching for ANY help. Most sites just have about pet insurance, and just for ONE DOG the price is almost $200 a MONTH!
So if anyone can help, I am reaching out. I don't know how to use crowdfunding sites, and one place online suggested reaching out on Facebook. So thank you to anyone who can offer some ideas or support.

I have had CPR classes over the years but was never told this…..
Have you ever thought about it ❤️
When you are alone and have a heart attack. What are you gonna do then ?
A rarely good post that can't be shared often enough:
1.
Take a 2 minute break and read this:
Let's say it's 5:25 pm and you're driving home after an unusually hard day's work.
2.
You are really tired and frustrated.
All of a sudden your chest pains. They are starting to radiate in the arm and jaw. It feels like being stabbed in the chest and heart. You're only a few miles away from the nearest hospital or home.
3.
Unfortunately you don't know if you can make it..
4.
Maybe you've taken CPR training, but the person running the course hasn't told you how to help yourself.
5.
How do you survive a heart attack when you're alone when it happens? A person who is feeling weak and whose heart is beating hard has only about 10 seconds before losing consciousness.
6.
But you can help yourself by coughing repeatedly and very strongly! Deep breaths before every cough. Coughing should be repeated every second until you arrive at the hospital or until your heart starts to beat normally.
7.
Deep breathing gives oxygen to your lungs and coughing movements boost the heart and blood circulation. Heart pressure also helps to restore a normal heartbeat. Here's how cardiac arrest victims can make it to the hospital for the right treatment
8.
Cardiologists say if someone gets this message and passes it on to 10 people, we can expect to save at least one life.
9. FOR WOMEN: You should know that women have additional and different symptoms. Rarely have crushing chest pain or pain in the arms. Often have indigestion and tightness across the back at the bra line plus sudden fatigue.
Instead of posting jokes, you're helping save lives by spreading this message.

This is something I never knew could happen.

I would add that certain breeds, such as German Shepherds and Rotttweilers are especially susceptible to bloat.
Also, feeding your dog one large meal a day can increase the risk of bloat. It is better to feed two or more smaller meals a day.
