As you guys who have been reading this know my doggie is kinda dying of kidney disease.
we have him on this treatment where we give him shots of pennecilin & B12, & a type of IV fluid to flush out the toxins in his system basically replacing the function of his kidneys and we bought the shots and the fluids and are doing it at home so its cheaper. the doctor said with this treatment he'll live anywhere from a week to a year. BUT its not a cheap treatment, granted its cheaper than going to the vet everyday but its still $120 every ten days versus $61 everyday. What sucks is my dad and my brother both have basically told me that they aren't spending anymore money on treatments for him so thats leaving me to front the bill which I REALLY can't afford, so we're probably gonna have to end up putting him down at the end of the treatment session.
