Two phone calls since Rosie admittance,both asking permission to take bloods ,biopsy,etc,of course he mentioned the price so far £500, before he has even looked in her mouth,I trust David, he is the professional not me, waiting on my 3 rd phone call, I do hope it’s only her teeth that are the problem, I just want her home, her beds already, warm and cosey.
Pauline 
I feel your pain… both the worry about a friend and the cost.
I spent over £500 on Chloe during the summer and hours standing outside the surgery in a mask.
Chloe initially went to have her teeth cleaned but never got that far when a pre op blood test showed raised liver enzymes .
After many tests and no resolution I was told to see how she goes and a halt was called to more tests . She has been fine raised enzymes or not.
Here teeth I have sorted myself with daily brushing with a good toothpaste,Gentle dog bones and a canine mouth wash. I have reduced the tartar by three quarters.
Hoping Rosie will be back with you soon 
Thank you Meg, I’m glad Chloe is doing ok, it’s the not knowing isn’t it.
Rosie blood cells are very low plus I didn’t realise how much weight she has lost, last time she was weighed at vets, 5 and a half kg, they now says she weighs 4 kg, they are keeping her overnight as she has been up and down, also been shivering so they said they put her on a heat pad, I’m off to bed I wear myself out with worry, thanks again for everyone support I will have to wait until tomorrow.
Pauline, I do hope that Rosie will be ok.
Let’s hope you get good news tomorrow.
How’s Rosie this morning, Pauline?
Have they discovered exactly what is wrong with her yet?
I hope all’s well.
My poor little girl had to be put down today,they couldn’t control her glucose,she kept having seizures,plus she had a huge mass in her pancreas, they advised me to put her to sleep as she was suffering.
I can’t believe she has gone, as it all happened so quickly.
I will never have another dog ,I think the pain of losing a pet gets harder as you get older…rip my little princess.
Hi Pauline, Sorry for the late response but l have only just seen this thread.
My little poodle always had trouble with his teeth and had lots of them out. It used to be £300 plus every time they were extracted or cleaned. It’s right what you say, you love your dog so much that you would give everything you have so that they are ok.
Edited to say…
Oh my goodness Pauline, l have just seen your post that came in whilst l was typing and sending my post. I am so, so sorry.
You did your very best for Rosie and that’s all l can say… as l feel so upset at this very sad outcome …
Oh Pauline, I’m so, so sorry to hear this update. 
What a terrible shock it must be for you. Try to keep thinking Rosie is no longer in pain, no longer suffering and she is now at rest. :hug:
Pauline I am so sorry :hug:
Oh Pauline, I am really sad to here this. Hugs to you.
So sorry for your loss Pauline.
Oh dear Pauline, poor Rosie. So very sorry.
All us animal folks know how much it hurts, so be kind to yourself.
So sad, Pauline. Remember the good times.
Rosie’s passing is so sad, especially at Christmas … my thoughts are with you …
Thank you everyone, you are all so kind and supportive, you have no idea how much your comforting words really help me,
Bless your hearts.xx
So, so sad to hear that paulene. My thoughts are with you. It will take a while but eventually you will be able to remember her and smile.
Pauline - I am so sorry to hear your sad news. Pets do leave their paw prints all over our hearts. Remember the good times you shared. :hug::hug::hug:
The vet practice sent me a lovely card, also a tiny bottle with some of her hair in,…the words they wrote has helped me greatly.
Pauline, I can guess what that meant to you, because my vet did the same for me when I lost my beautiful Izzy suddenly in February this year.
I opened my card, but felt something else in the bottom of the envelope, and found the tiny bottle of her hair.
That, and her pawprints on the inside of the card, meant the world to me, so I do understand how you must have felt.
Thanks Mups,…so you have also been through it, I never knew you lost Izzy, how old was she?..I think , because it happened all so very quickly, I feel I’m still in shock, I didn’t realise what a huge impact it has had on me, chihuahuas are one of the most loving breed, she was so full of character and love, I know I will get over it, but at the moment I’m just moping around, my cleaning has taken a nose dive, I’ve been on here a lot,to take my mind off it…she certainly left a deep paw print in my heart,
