In my case, I have two dogs, and cats, so she would be no better off, I'm afraid. She's beautiful, though, and I hope you find an appropriate home for her.borderjacknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492255858171331632.post-76445081379356377632010-04-10T19:13:53.411-04:002010-04-10T19:13:53.411-04:00She needs to stabilize first - the stress she feel...She needs to stabilize first - the stress she feels being in a multi-dog environment is not helping with that and getting her blood glucose levels down. Once she is stabilized then her eyes can be assessed. I have been told the cost is about $2,000. per eye. It would be great to get a specialist who is willing to reduce costs but will have to cross that bridge when we come to it.DOG BLOGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07000053388626939641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492255858171331632.post-57138654416845578392010-04-10T18:51:24.723-04:002010-04-10T18:51:24.723-04:00Hi; first I have to get her diabetes under control...Hi; first I have to get her diabetes under control or the cataracts will just return. Then her eyes will have to assessed to see if cataract surgery can be done. I've been told to expect it to cost about $2,000 per eye, plus the costs of assessment. Sadly it's awkward - the anxiety she feels being in a home with multiple dogs is probably part of the reason she is having difficulty stabilizing her blood sugar levels.DOG BLOGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07000053388626939641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492255858171331632.post-31746782253032651742010-04-09T20:51:39.693-04:002010-04-09T20:51:39.693-04:00Sorry, don't know.

Do they work with a vet that can discount it? Or has it basically been written off? Do you know?borderjacknoreply@blogger.com
