My dog Penny, is a chi-doxie mix. She is having emergency surgery for a blocked intestine, as I am writing this. I'm waiting to hear if she is ok. She has been vomiting and not eating for 6 days. I have been to 3 vets to find out what is wrong. The charge for the services so far is $4000 and expected to increase if she makes it through the surgery.

Your dog is just precious! I hope she pulls through! You are in my thoughts!
I'm sorry to hear you dog is very sick. I hope she is doing better now.
I think the best thing you can do is to try to work out something with your vet. Explain your circumstances and ask if he will accept a small amount each month or offer to do some work for his office to go towards paying down the debt.
As far as your house repairs go, I would contact the larger churches in your area and explain your situation and what specifically you need done to make your home livable. Organizations like these often have volunteers who mow lawns and make minor home repairs.
Your county or city social services department also may be able to assist you with daily living expenses, if you qualify. They also may be able to direct you to nonprofit agencies in your area that may be able to help you as well.
Your local phone directory has these telephone numbers and also may have a section that explains the kinds of services different government agencies offer.
Good luck, and don't give up! We're all rooting for you and Penny!
try carecredit.com I hope all is well with your baby.
Try the Brown Dog Foundation. A friend of mine got assistance for her vet bills through these people.
Good luck with the precious doggy.
I have no tip for you, but I'm so sorry to hear of the ordeal you are both going through. Hope the vet can save her!
