My friend called me on Thursday to tell me that someone brought in a puppy to her work (She works for a vet specialist office as a tech, they are only specialists, no standard appointments or visits) that had been attacked by a Pit Bull and a Rottie. :( The pup was the new addition to this family and the owners had never seen thier original two act in this way before.
Turns out, the surgery would cost over $4000 to correct, and the dog wouldn't have full use of her leg. They elected to put the pup down because of the cost. :(
My friend wouldn't let them do it. So, she called our mutual friend, who just bought in to a clinic to see if she'd do an ampuation and then we'd all keep our eyes open for a home for this little girl.
I'm happy to say the surgery was a success! They did it today and now she's resting comfortably.
:) I'm so proud of my friends! They all saw she's utterly adorable and HUGE! She's a pit/rottie mix and they say she's very sweet. I'm sure someone will take her soon... :)
