Vanity-Any veterinarians here?
20-June-07 | me

Posted on 06/20/2007 6:19:23 PM PDT by aft_lizard

I just found one my dogs hanging from a fence. It's still alive but one of it's eyes is now protruding out of it's socket. I tried to push it back in a little but I got scared and I don't want to damage it. Is this something that will go away on its own? Or am I being to scared and can push it in on my own? I can't really afford a vet right now, but will if need be.

I’m so glad to hear your dog is going to be OK - it made my day! I take in stray dogs & cats & sometimes we have to stretch to provide for them, but they are such a blessing to us, we love them as we would our own children.

God bless you & have a nice day!

Oh good, I’m glad to know she didn’t lose her eye or worse! Also that your vet offers deferred payment.

Pugs are cute little buggers. :o)

Aft_lizard,

Great news! Glad everything worked out. I don’t think anyone was upset for you just concerned! :) I know what its like to be out of balance to the income side and have to go to the vet. Thankfully like you we have had a great vet that would allow us to defer payment a month or two. unfortunately he has retired. I guess professionals like that are getting fewer and far between.

You’re not a bad pet owner! There’s nothing wrong with making your own healthcare decisions, if you can.
I’m so glad your baby’s okay.

His anus occasionally protrudes after using the bathroom.

If you have never read All Creatures Great and Small, get yourself to the library forthwith. Hilarious.

I don't think you sound like a bad pet owner at all. The world will never be 100% pet- or child-proof, we all do the best we can and learn our lessons along the way.
