$400 for that. Thanks.

A kid ran over my dog with a motorcycle. Broke her back. Vet said "a lot of people would put her down, but if you're willing to work with her, she might be able to walk again." She was in a cart for 3-4 months, but we got her walking again. That was 2000, she finally succumbed to kidney failure late last year.
That's 6 years of time with a loyal animal who looks up to you. How can you put a price tag on that?
I know there's a limit, and I know you can't put tens of thousands into an animal that can't tell you what's wrong, but god, you can't just put down an animal because you'd rather buy mods or some ****.

eaten broken glass: numerous xrays, anti-biotics, and a doggy colonoscopy
eaten a lighter: the meds helped it come out in only 2 peices
scratched his cornia: after hours charge >_<
chewed off a massive wart on his leg that was veined: 12 hours of bleeding in my house til the vets could do surg.
those were each about 600 a peice, thus are the only ones worth mentioning. unles syou own a ferret or an exotic bird i can almost guarantee ive spent more at the vet. note, this is in a two year period since i got the dog in feb 05 and doesnt include nuetering and complications from that.
*edit* seeing the dog totally ****faced was worth #2 even tho it wasnt planned. hes a crafty ****er
