Presley, my Newfoundland mix, is just starting to experience all this stuff, on top of stomach problems, and he is only eight. He is young at heart, but his body is old. I want to know how long he can last in this state. I hate to have him suffering. Thank you! Just curious what age your Akita started suffering from all of this?

He has one TTA from when he was two, but now that he is eight he has a had a whole slew of problems. He has been throwing up, losing weight, and moaning like crazy, but he is still very young at heart. I've been spending thousands of dollars for tests, etc., but they're not finding anything. He had an ultrasound Thursday that was normal, blood work that came back Friday that was normal. So, we were discussing an endoscopy when he blew his knee Saturday playing fetch in the back yard. I am slowly losing patience and am depressed that my baby boy is hurt. I don't know what to do, but if money was no object I would do it all. Does financial assistance work?

She tries hard to make everyone feel better about her circumstances cancer, it saddens me when vets suggest putting her down because I can't financially afford treatments. I have two beautiful little boys who refer to her as there sister and she's my daughter so clearly I want life for her not death.

Right now, there is no one other than Care Credit providing financial assistance. At all.

My 15 yrs old mix breed Akita has been suffering from Hip Dysplasia and Degenerative Disc Disease of the spine going on almost 2 years now. He has been taking Tramadol, Rimadyl, Rejuvinate, Adiquain shots, and Prescription J/D dog food for 7-8 months now. A different doctor told me he may need hip surgery on both hips...can anyone tell me if there is anything less expensive to help us make him more comfortable because he has many more years to live??? Please help me, I'm not ready to give up on him, although I don't have a lot of money to spend on him.
