Bacterial infection = large vet bill
Ok I am desparate. I have six jack russells and my baby “lucky” got very sick about 10 days ago with an undetermined bacterial infection. My vet referred him to NCSU vet school for further testing. Liver panels were scary and many other tests performed to rule out stuff. He has received excellant care but I am currently unemployed and I have other bills to pay too. We are about 3K and still not done. Does ANYONE know of any possible assistance or a resource I can contact? I have given to Humane society, NCSU vet school and many other non-profit organizations over the years. I am really not trying to cheap out but I really need some help.
Thanks to everyone. Keep lucky in your prayers!

Boy, it seems to me that over the years I have heard of one or more veterinary assistance programs available through humane organizations. Unfortunately, the names of the sponsoring organizations are long since gone from memory. Try Googling something like “veterinary assistance” and see if anything helpful pops up.
I’m very sorry to hear of Lucky’s illness, and I hope he recovers quickly and completely.
I wish you all the best,
Tempest

Just a quick update on lucky.. He is eating and keepin water down today. Small portions of course. I will pick up up this afternoon. I have tried googling veterniary assistance but no luck. I will keep trying.
Thanks to all. Keep praying for his continued recovery.
