Emergency room says $10k for surgery on two breaks on the right front leg or weekly visits to change bandages and make sure it doesn't get infected and is mending straight so there's much more risk that way. Told her to check with a regular vet as it should be significantly cheaper but I imagine at least $4-5k for surgery.
Anyone have input or experiences with this?
Is your EX paying for this?
ER visits are super expensive for dogs.
The type of break and where are what will give you a dog with a usable leg or not.
The vet should be able to give insight on this.
We’ve gotten recommendations to amputate and retire the dog from service before. This was on rears though.

Yeah, I'm not putting anything financial towards this as this was her and her new bf's fault for not watching him. My coworkers dog jumped out of her truck while moving and dislocated its shoulder and she's at risk of having to amputate because it isn't fully healing. I'm not sure on all the details or where the breaks are, but I can't afford to take the problem on unless everything that can be done has been done. Either the surgery gets done or she does the weekly visits, but he stays with her until it's done.
Hope they can fix the pup up and it works out.

He might end up getting it amputated. I told her to do what she thought was best but that I'd still take him regardless.

King went to another vet appointment today and this vet has over 40 years in the profession. Said amputation can be done at any time, but with how well his bandage/cast was put on and how clean the two breaks in his arm are, he is suggesting the bandage stays on for another week as the bone fibers will start to reattach within a week, and the area it broke in has really good blood flow to speed up healing. Goes back in another week to have the bandage changed and the arm checked and then he'll probably have him go with that for a couple more weeks and do it again and so on until it's healed or it turns for the worst.

He just needs to be kept immobile and no activity at all which I guess he has been really good with. He's not picking at his bandages or trying to run and play or anything so I'm hopeful he'll be able to do what is needed to keep the leg and get it healed. I'm going to take him on the 5th as Rose is going out of town so he'll be with me from that point on. Excited to have my buddy around again.
