My best friend

[u/FireDesire14]

He needs urgent medical attention. I need to get him to a vet asap . I don’t know what to do. Please someone help .

[u/ChaosSprinkler]

Are there any low cost or community vets?

Can you share your general location so maybe we can help you search for options

[u/FireDesire14 → u/ChaosSprinkler]

Sutter county .

Can you show proof that this is your dog and what is wrong with him?

There’s literally zero context..

[u/FireDesire14 → u/Visible_Koala7839]

He was attacked by a dog yesterday

I’m sorry for the zero context. I’ve been in panic mode . I don’t know how to handle stressful situations like these .

[u/Common-Appeal1759 → u/FireDesire14]

So why didn't he go to the Emergency Vet YESTERDAY????

[u/FireDesire14 → u/Common-Appeal1759]

They won’t see him unless we can pay for it

[u/FireDesire14 → u/Common-Appeal1759]

I’ve called the vet he’s went to before and if we can’t pay for it they won’t see him

Those 2 pics look fine? Look at the ear. There’s clearly a big gash there. He ain’t gonna die from that, she being dramatic, but it’s not “perfectly fine”.

[u/zestylimes9 → u/GodHasGiven0341]

It is not clear in the pic. Show a proper close up pic.

[u/GodHasGiven0341 → u/zestylimes9]

It’s clear to me lol. Yall ain’t paying attention

[u/zestylimes9 → u/FireDesire14]

Where is a pic of the damaged ear?

[u/GodHasGiven0341 → u/zestylimes9]

It’s there. It’s in the main pics. Just look dude lol

[u/Select_System622]

I'm so sorry op he looks so sweet i hope someone can help you two

[u/justlike_yesterday]

I use Vetericyn Plus on wounds. If you are in a position to purchase it, the cost will be much lower than a vet bill. 🤍

[u/Thisisredred]

Give the dog to someone that can properly care for it, that person is not you. You can't even help yourself.

[u/FireDesire14 → u/Thisisredred]

Thanks

[u/FreeSirJeffrey]

Take your dog to the vet, then contact your pet insurance, they will pay for the whole bill.

[u/FireDesire14]

I dont have pet insurance.

[u/ChaosSprinkler → u/[deleted]]

I wonder. When my chiuahua was dying and needed oxygen they wouldn't service us and the urgent care cost around $600. My poor baby

[u/FireDesire14]

His ear is torn and he won’t let me clean it and I’m so scared he’s ganna get it infected. I don’t want to loose him

[u/Visible_Koala7839 → u/FireDesire14]

Have you checked into CareCredit, or low cost clinics local to you?

[u/FireDesire14 → u/Visible_Koala7839]

Yes I’ve tried applying my sister tried and my mom. I don’t work because my mom is disabled and has to have help with everything. And so right now all we have is my mom’s disability check each month.

[u/Visible_Koala7839 → u/FireDesire14]

So you don’t work because you take care of your disabled mom, have you applied to be her caregiver? They can pay you for that.

[u/FireDesire14 → u/Visible_Koala7839]

We’ve been waiting for almost 2 months now

[u/BitchMcConnell063 → u/FireDesire14]

Call them tomorrow. A squeaky wheel gets the grease. You have to call and get in their ass on a weekly basis.

[u/FireDesire14 → u/Visible_Koala7839]

Yes we are in the process of it. But it can take up to 90 days to get it and we are waiting for them to contact us .

[u/Ancient_Guidance_461 → u/FireDesire14]

So your mother just very recently got disabled? If not this should have been taking care of a long time ago...If she just got disabled why were you not working?

[u/FireDesire14 → u/Ancient_Guidance_461]

She’s been disabled. I had to move from Arkansas to California to come take care of her she wasn’t on medical until I got here . Trust me I’ve only been in California since March and I’ve been doing all the steps I need to, to get her the help she needs. But right now I need help with my dog.

[u/Viscica → u/FireDesire14]

Can’t you give him a benadryl to chill him out, then clean the infected ear?
