TK4702 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Hey Gang, Some of you may know already, but for those who don't... I had a freak accident with my dog a 3-4 weeks back. As I was pulling into the parking lot at the local dog park, she had gotten so excited she crawled out the crack in the window and fell out of the car. I had both our dogs in the car and didn't even hear her trying to get out ... all I heard was her yelping once she was outside. I ran outside to get her, and could tell right away something was wrong with her front right leg, it was just giving out when she went to walk on it. So thinking she had broken it I rushed her to the Emergency Animal Clinic. We spent a good portion of the night there before they told us that she had tore all the nerves in that leg and that it was paralyzed. They also said that she most likely will not regain use of the leg and it would have to eventually be amputated. Often when dogs go through this type of injury, they will self-mutilate ... I was hoping she wouldn't but she is starting to chew at her leg. She's had numerous checkups on the limb since... And tonight I had to run her to the vet again because she had completely removing the flesh from her leg. So the surgery has been bumped up to this Thursday (Aug 16th). Really no way around her losing the leg now. I adopted this puppy from the humane society about three Months ago. The first dog I've ever adopted, and this is what happens. I just feel so dang bad, like I let her down or something? Anyhow, this is where I need your help. The vet said the surgery is going to cost us $1,500.00 and I don't know where I will come up with the money. We have bills from my past surgeries overdue, taxes that still need to be paid ... we have three kids, two car payments, three mortgages... I could go on... BUt what I'm trying to say that thing have been real tight for us. I'm not looking for hand outs, but if anyone needs TK detonators kits, TK belt clips or helmets built for them, anything you can think of, please let me know ... I'm also an accomplished graphic designer, 3D modeler, video editor and photographer ... Please let me know if you need any of these items or services. I could really use the cash right now. I may be listing a few items for sale as well... I'll have to figure something out. Thanks for reading this.

DirtyBoy Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Aww man that sucks Jesse....sorry to hear about that man. You didn't let her down...you gave her a loving home and will continue to do so. The leg loss is something she will easily overcome. It's much more tragic for us than it is for them. Sucks for the financial aspect of things for you though:( hit me up...I'll order some det pads from you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iconoclasta_88 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 That's bad news... Hope you will find some way to sort it out. I can order a set of TK belt clips, for the thermal detonator, right? I am helping a friend build her TK and she needs the clips. Please PM me with costs and details. Saludos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, she's happy and healthy ... And that's all that matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
