Euthanasia or Surrender Ownership

That was the decision given to me by a Veterinarian, over the phone in a 6 minute conversation
Gastric blockage required immediate surgery for my pet costing $1000. I hung up to verify my spending availability.

With relief and happiness I called back letting the doctor know my CARE CREDIT spending limit was sufficient, with $500 to spare and to perform the surgery.


But now in addition to the $1000 there is now an After Care cost for a separate Animal Emergency Hospital, raising the cost by 300%

I was given no options, and I was denied to remove my pet from their care.
Euthanasia was all that was left for me, 


Until the Doctor then offered that Hunter could receive all the medical care who would need at no cost, if I surrendered ownership to the Hospital. I needed to make a decision quickly she stressed for Hunter's sake.


There was no documentation; They required no signature
Everything was over the phone and even charged me $185 
The next day, I went to say good bye.....they said No.
I did not have permission from the new owner.

MY PET WAS GIVEN A SECOND CHANCE MOST DON''T GET, BUT
A meeting with the Hospital owner 45 days later, his answers did not make sense. The doctor I dealt with, was a relief veterinarian. The after care used to drive cost up by 300%, my pet never received
he went home that night with an employee 


In the coming days, I learned much more about what happened

April 22 2014, 45 days after the fact, without any investigation, the hospital owner alleges Abuse & Neglect

UPDATE: HOMETOWN ANIMAL CARE OWNER RECANTED:
