This is one subject I have thought about quite a bit lately. I am probably more attached to my chihuahua than most people.He IS really like a child to me.My life revolves around him.I plan my days with him in mind.I owe thousands of dollars due to high vet prices.He suddenly started having seizures almost 2 years ago and didn't know why.He has to visit the vet every 6 months to monitor his phenobarbital level and sometimes have to visit more often due to another problem coming up.Last year I had to take him in to have his teeth removed due to a dental disease.That procedure alone was almost $1000.Thats not much money to "rich" prople but for me, living day to day, its a lot.But, no matter what the cost of vet care, its NEVER too much to pay for my baby(chihuahua).He is getting old and with all of his health problems and pain, I know I will end up having to "put him to sleep." But, how can I do that when I love him so much. It would be like telling someone to go ahead and kill your child.I just don't know if I could live with myself,even though it may be the best for his sake.
