      It’s too bad that the owners couldn’t have provided info on stars leg or hip injury … she is so precious and beautiful if I could have a pet in my apt I’d take her in a heartbeat! I have a grand dog Lottie whom I love with all my heart❤ I hope Star finds the most perfect furever home.. she deserves the world ❤️🥰💕💗😍

    I’ve been a veterinarian for 35 year and as soon as she stood up I suspected that she has a torn cranial cruciate ligament. I’m gonna bet that the former owners took her to their vet and got an estimate of 4 to 8 thousand dollars to fix it. They probably love her a great deal but didn’t have the money to fix it. They were way too embarrassed to admit it so they listed her as a stray. Veterinary costs in this country have exploded and you can thank private equity firms and corporations that are snapping up veterinary clinics all across the country. Now veterinary costs are being dictated by greedy shareholders that can never seem to get enough money. I HATE what’s happening to the profession I love. Corporate greed is going to be the downfall of this great country!

      Thanks for mentioning that. Just after reading the first part of your post, I thought, "private equity vet clinic greed". This is where that greed ultimately leads, abandoned animals and sometimes animal death.
      Vets who sell to private equity are just as greedy, selling their staffs and community down the river just to please their ego or monetary gluttony.

      @A83-A83 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +232

      Yeah it's really messed up. People having to give up their pets or even worse put them down 😢. I agree the costs are ridiculous. There are some places that do help low income people with vet services and there are places that help fund for vet services.some places even work with payment plans. There are vets that offer the grants and organizations that can help too. I couldn't imagine giving up my animal because they needed expensive care. I'd fight every way I could for my animal. I've got a Chihuahua I've rescued from my disowned "half sister 🤢" she was going to leave him in a cage as a baby outside in the cold with NOTHING but an empty cold cage. It made me so MAD! he was a puppy when my kid was a baby. I've kept him every since. I've had to pay deposits that were costly to keep him, but I couldn't give him up. Once we're in, we're in till the end. People need to stop being unloyal to these poor fur babies. I'm glad she got a good home in the long run. ☺️

      Greed is the #1 motivation for gouging hardworking people. They know how to work your emotions, and use your love for your animals as a way to manipulate you into things you can't afford, and are not guaranteed to even work. Sad.

    My son adopted a 2 yr old pitbull that had been rescued from a fighting club. She was huge, but not aggressive, so they used her as a bait dog. Poor girl had scars from head to tail, but she was a friendly, funny, loving chunk of a dog! We lost her to cancer about a month ago, but first she spent 12 years giving unconditional love to everyone she met!

You dump any dogs lately? I wonder why you think it's ok for these poor shelters and rescues to keep taking these dogs in like they have money pouring in from the sky but get mad when they have a fee to take care of YOUR dog and turn around and be the first to complain that they are putting them to sleep. But it's ok as long as the alleged "poor" people don't have to use their money. Yep, that makes sense.

    After i lost my house to Hurricane Harvey in 2017, none of my friends or family would allow me to leave my Black Lab with them, as i was moving into an extended-stay hotel for a few weeks. The hotel only allowed service-dogs. I was preparing for my fur baby and me to live on the street, before a friend finally allowed my baby to stay with her. There was no way i was placing my poochie *back* in a shelter. She is my child. She's brought so much joy into my life. Thank you Doc for the special work you do. You are appreciated. ♥

      extended stay hotels allow dogs, in fact they are required to allow even emotional support dogs. if they say only service dogs, you say it is a service dog. people make such a drama out of things like this, when the solution is so simple. i am glad you didn't give up the dog, but this was so simple to solve. rocky is not a doc, he actually means really well, but he is such an idiot with dog behavior. it is nice to see someone who cares, but he is as dumb as the floor he is sitting on.

    Pit bulls are so mis-understood. The majority of them are just as Rocky said, so sweet. our pit bull was dumped about 1/2 mile from our house. We tried the usual "found dog" posters, listed her in the local paper. and eventually we had to take her to a local shelter, because our (pre existing) beagle was totally against having another dog in the house. And I WILL NOT tie a dog out in the yard. The shelter was able to help us get our begal to be ok with another dog. and after about 2 weeks (I went to the shelter every day to spend time with the pit bull. I wanted her to know she wasn't just being thrown away again. There is one "thing" about owning a pit bull. They are VERY ENERGETIC, and NEED a LOT OF EXERCISE!!! After about 4 or 5 years, ours finally settled down enough that we could skip a day between exercising. Ours was very good with our children. sadly, she grew old, and developed cancer. So we had to euthanize her. That was HARD, but she was suffering, and WE could not let her suffer any longer.

      What a good shelter to help your dog get used to the pittie. Thank you for providing that fur-baby a loving home. I am truly sorry for your loss. I rescued a pittie that was in a pen 24/7. He had a miserable life. I was able to talk the owners into letting me have the dog. Within a week he started coughing up blood. Turns out he had heartworms. After more than $900, he was treated and given a clean bill of health. He's never been very active and I'm assuming it's because he was never played with as a puppy 😭 and because the heartworms slowed him down. He is older now I give him lots of love to make up for those previous, so called, owners. He is a house dog now and will always be treated like our love bug.

One of the reasons they’ve been used for fighting is they are generally NOT aggressive toward humans but instead just want to please us. Fighting dogs are abused - that’s how they get them to fight.
