I don't know anything about this vet, but will he not work with you on payment? Many vets will treat dogs in urgent need on a payment plan or for a discounted rate. The vet does have some money upfront. Perhaps you could work out some sort of payment schedule for the balance or put part of the bill on a credit card, so the surgery can be done? If not, maybe another vet could be more flexible. Leaving the dog at the facility on IVs seems like it might make the bill larger and prolong the dog's discomfort or pain. You're in a hard spot, and I wish both you and your poor dog the best.

Scooter is a 3-month old special needs Jack Russell/Basenji mix. He was born with a birth defect where his patellas (knees) are backwards and fused. He has no use of his back legs. He is full of life and has a HUGE heart! He should be named Flier as he flies around the house more than scoots! He gets along with other dogs, cats and loves children. He needs a furever home with someone who has the time and patience to handle his special needs. He has had his shots, an ortho consult and will be neutered. he is also being fitted for a wheelchair. There will be a rehoming fee. If you are interested in helping Scooter, please email for more info.?Location: Vineland, NJ

Oh! That little dear life needs someone who loves him wholeheartedly and looks past his physical challenges. He will make someone a wonderful pet and will enrich their hearts in ways they never thought possible. Wishing you the very best, little Scooter, in your search for a new 'furever' home.
