Anyway, I have posted many pictures of my border collie Dante, he has helped me through many hard times in the time I have had him. And now, he needs my help and I am unable to help him by myself.
He has torn his ACL and needs surgery to fix it. The surgery is 1100$ when all is said and done. I have managed to save 150$ towards upgrading my computer which now goes to help Dante. I was going to just try and save the money and do so with a much more concentrated effort, but even that is not fast enough it seems. Because Dante has had to hop around on only three legs his other back knee/ACL joint is quickly weaking and he needs the surgery ASAP before his other leg goes out as well.
So, I am asking you all for any help you could give. Even 10$ is that much closer I will be to his surgery.
Since I can not for the life of me figure out to post that little donation link paypay gives you in huge long lines of HTML, I am linking my LJ post that has the link in it. Pay Pal Link In This Post On LJ

Spending $1100 on a dog is dumb. Once shit starts failing they don't have long to go, anyway.

What? I remember my grandparents wasting like a grand of your funny money, roughly converted, on their dog because it had bad hind legs or something. A year later it went blind and had trouble breathing and shit and they had to put it down anyway. Just get a new dog.
And thank you Sean, very much.

If you want to talk about it, make a new thread. I don't want to see you in this thread again.
And just so you all who think I should just put Dante down. He is not that old, and healthy in every other way. He got the injury from a fall, not from illness or disease or age.
Our cat, for instance, is in the middle of her expected lifespan. We could have six or seven more really good years with her (and that's not assuming she'll have the freakish good health her mother has at 12 years old). Dropping some cash to get her liver problem sorted out was an unexpected and unwelcome expense (who welcomes dropping money on something like this) but I wouldn't say it was an unworthy expenditure.
I wish I could contribute, Trent, because I do really sympathize, but I can't afford much right now, with closing on our house and so forth coming up. Sorry

With the surgery Dante should get back to 100% and continue a healthy long life.

He's actually hopping around rather well. First night was rough on him, but all will work out.
Yes, I had a dog named Steve.

Here is Dante day after surgery.He's actually hopping around rather well. First night was rough on him, but all will work out.
If he were a cat, he'd be putting his shaved limb on you constantly for sympathy.
Are they at all worried he'll gnaw on the stitches?
