I recieved a call from the vet office less than 24hrs after losing our 12yr old Siberian Husky, Jesse, to an aggressive tumor.
Vet said she knew we had just lost our husky the night before, but..... A family had just left a 5 month old husky with Parvo to be put down.
The vet believed that the dog was in the very early stages of the disease & could be saved if we would be willing to pay a portion of the treatment,
we could have her for no additional cost. We had 9 pets now, I was looking to downsize, but I felt that God was asking me to do this.
I had paid $200 for Jesse 8 yrs before & it was the best money I ever spent for a dog. I needed some confirmation from God, since I REALLY did not want another mouth to feed. So, I asked God that if he REALLY wanted me to take this dog, the vet bill would not be more than the $200 I paid for Jesse. We went to meet
dog and I spoke with the vet. She said that she would call me at home in about 30 mins and give me our cost to save the dog. I did not tell her about my talk with God. We went home, got the call. Vet quoted our part at $199.95. Good Lord, I hear ya! :-) Then the vet said that if the 1st treatment did not go well, it could cost up to $750 to save her. I told the vet that I already knew the 1st treatment would take.... AND IT DID! The vet called 2 days later and said, 'come get your dog'! :-) That was 2 years ago and Hanna has come a long way... and so has my husband in dealing with the grief of losing Jesse. No dog can replace Jesse... but Hanna has made it her mission to make her daddy happy everyday with her love and kisses. ALWAYS RESCUE IF ABLE..... there's no better HAPPY CRITTER KARMA! :-)
