Answer 1

Try for this card> http://www.carecredit.com/apply/index.html
It is made just for such emergencies, and allows you up to 18 months to repay, with no interest. Where it says, find a doctor, choose veterinarian..You will know within minute if you have been approved..
All it requires is a steady source of income..

If you can come up with $40, this stuff is amazing, and works even after it appears that there is no hope> http://www.parvoguard.com/
I have had too much experience with parvo, and it sure sounds like your little one has it..

give her Pedialyte or even Gatoraid every few minutes,spoon or syringe a little down her..every few minutes,even during the night, at least every hour.

Edit: I am so sorry for your loss..You will have a puppy to play with in Heaven..I have proof! that they wait for us..

Can you pawn something, since you are getting money soon? It's better than letting her die. Move quick so you don't end up paying urgent care fees!

Ask the vet if you can write a post dated check. Or, just take her and then pay with a post dated check, as a last resort. What can they do once she's treated? The check probably won't go through until Tuesday or Wed. anyway.

Can you borrow money from anyone? Call the Humane Society too. Bloody diarrhea is a BAD sign and she may not last much longer. So sorry, my friend. Do whatever you can.

I have to agree, that if you can't get her treated, take her to the humane society and give her away. If you pay all the bills you may be allowed to adopt her back. It's Friday afternoon, don't let her suffer through the weekend. It's cruel and inhumane. At the very least the humane society can diagnose her and put her to sleep, if needed. It's much better than allowing her to die a painful death while you hope for the best.

Please, get off the computer and take action one way or another and stop the suffering. I know it's hard, but do the right thing for her.

Answer 3

Call the vet. There is a program called Care Credit that you can apply for. Do a search online for more information about it. Your dog cannot wait until next week. Within 36 hours of the onset of symptoms your pup will be dead. There are also other programs that can help. Most vets will know about them. Once the bloody diarrhea starts, it may already be too late. Maybe you could borrow the money. It is not cheap! You may be looking at $500 or more to treat this. If you absolutely cannot get the money do not let your pet suffer. It is far kinder to have her put down that die slowly over a few days.

Answer 4

Pick up the phone and don't put it down until you've found someone will help you! Use the yellow pages to ring EVERY vet nearby and explain the situation - some will accept payment plans. Most can direct you to a shelter or charity, or an ASPCA branch that can help.

Do you have a credit card? Can you borrow off a friend or family member? This puppy does sound very ill indeed, you don't have much time - in the state she's in literally every minute counts, so grab that yellow pages (or use yell.com) and pick up that phone! It may be that you need to hand her over to the care of a shelter to get her treated - and get treated she must.

Answer 5

you can try calling around and see if there is a vet that will help you. The longer you wait, the smaller her chances of survival are....have you thought about a pay advance of maybe a title loan? Her chances of survival ar 50/50....I have seen dogs totally recover but I have seen many of them die. I think you need to make a decision quickly, because the poor baby is suffering...I think you need to make an appointment with a vet (I think the vet at Petsmart usually does the first exam for free) and see what her chances are. It is very expensive to cure parvo and you don't want her to suffer. I would defiantly get some advice from a vet...but you might do her a favor by putting her down (as harsh as it sounds), but if you truly love that dog you don't want her to suffer till she dies. Good luck to you and I hope that someone can help her!!

Answer 6

You bought a BULL and TERRIER dog and you didn't except it to be any different? Think about it... a terrier mixed with a bulldog??? What did you think you were going to get a calm little house dog? I think not...This is why people need to do there research on breeds and not get them just for cuteness. You need to start training this dog NOW! Take her to some local training classes and learn how to handle the dog before you destroy her beyond fixing! If you can't put in the effort give her to a bull terrier rescue so they can work with her and adopt her to someone who knows how to handle a bully breed. How much exercise does she get? Bullies need a lot because they are a really high energy breed. Also get her fixed if she hasn't been yet that is your first step and get her into training asap! If you need more help please email me. Don't destroy this dog beyond fixing! Don't treat like dog like a baby treat it like a dog!

Answer 7

"When dogs and puppies contract parvo, they often have diarrhea, vomiting and lethargy. Usually they stop eating and develop a bloody, foul-smelling, liquid stool.

Symptoms usually begin with a high fever, lethargy, depression, and loss of appetite. Secondary symptoms appear as severe gastrointestinal distress, such as vomiting and bloody diarrhea. In many cases, dehydration, shock, and death follow. "

Call your vet and take her in NOW on an emergency basis. When you are there, tell the front office girl you need to make payment arrangements.

Answer 8

I'm sorry to hear that your precious baby is suffering and you are having to watch... but it does sound like that's what is going on.
I would suggest giving her some gatorade to prevent her from dehydrating (even if you have to spoon it in her mouth or use a baby medicine dropper), anything to keep her hydrated. Also try to get her to eat some baby food.
You really have to force them to eat and drink cause there is not much time after they start acting like they cant walk and then just laying around all the time. This is a deadly disease and also you should notice a terrible smell. This is all signs of Parvo, I'm sad to say.
I wish you the best of luck...

Answer 9

Come on, why do you have a dog if you can't afford an emergency??? Take it to the aspca right now, they will help you. There must be a vet that will help, not all of them are about money. You dog is SUFFERING. Instead of being on here, go call some vets!!!

Answer 10

You may want to call your local humane society. They may be willing to help treat your puppy and take payments later. IF your puppy does have parvo, the outlook is not so good if she has all those symptoms. You need to get here some help ASAP!
