broken leg

[taylorsdad 0]

Well every one my worst nightmare came true monday night, i was out lamping with my young dog only his fourth time out he caught one bunny slipped him on the next one as he whent down to snatch it he twisted awkward and snapped his leg in two just above the lower joint.

got him to the vet my local RSPA one they gave him emergency treatment [painkiller and splint] and told me he'l need pins put in only chance of him making a good recovery and being able to run with out problems, but the only way they will do this is if they newter [spelling] him, thing is he has the making of a good dog and was showing promise and hes only 11months old and one day i was hoping to put him over my bitch and start my own line,

iv tried other vets but they want accept payment installments i was laid off 3 weeks ago and with a house and young family i havnt got the money to pay in full, so what i would like to know is if you can have the newter [spelling] reversed, any advice most welcome.

 

Thanks for reading TD

Go to a greyhound vet

[Guest little lurcher]

they cant force you to neuter your dog , threaten them with rcvs

They aint forcing me little lurcher but if i want them to treat him il have to have him done

i wish i could go to another vet lads but i phoned around 10 diffrent vets today and none of them would let me pay by installments full payment only but the rspca one will, I dont care how much it will cost its the fact i havnt got the money behind me to pay up front, thats why i asked if you could have neutering reversed, il have him treated by them then have it reversed later when i can afford it. thanks lads

i agree with craigyboy, i've just had my bull x at the pdsa, they were great with him, he was in for 2 days, they advised me to castrate him but i think they say that to everyone, but it didnt stop them treating him.

take the dog to a normal vet and tell them you will have cash for them when you come back for the dog , go back pick up the dog hand them what you can aford if they try and get wide with you tell them that you are going to pay them but only what you can aford every week or fortnight . it is as easy as that mate they have to op on the dog due to the vets code of conduct and they have to except payment in instalments it is the law .

[spiderpig 39]

thats true also.they cannot legally refuse to treat an injured animal regardless of money issues or they can and would be struck off

Taylorsdad, you can't reverse neutering. Once it's done, it's done.

Bloody stupid advice and totally wrong, it is NOT the law that they have to accept installments, and what happens when the dog has to go back for aftercare?

Once again totally wrong.

 

Go to the PDSA.
