T-Dog, Doc has been hunting well lately!

Cracker, I don’t think a vet could have saved her. I thought she was dead when I found her. She couldn’t move at all, and could just barely track movement with her eyes. The nearest emergency vet would have been an hour past my house and I didn’t think she was even going to live for the ride back home. If I would’ve had my gun with me I probably would have put her down in the woods. By the time I made the 20 minute ride home and got the other two dogs unloaded her legs were already feeling cold to the touch and her skin had the real dry feeling that they get after they die. I ended up not putting her down wanting to see if there was some miracle she would pull through but as I figured, she didn’t. By the time we got her out of the woods, it was less than an hour that she lived.

The emergency vet is CVETS which is horrible emergency vet that does not like hunting dogs. From prior experiences with them I can guarantee that they would have charged me a minimum $2,000-$3,000 and that’s not including a multiple day stay. Realistically it probably would have been over $4,000. I’m not paying a bill like that for a young dog that doesn’t have much of a chance on surviving to start with. Based off of the timing, she wouldn’t have survived the ride there to start with.
