There was a story on the news last night about some people shelling out 45k on stem cell therapy as a last resort for their dogs and cats who have cancer.
What surprised the animal owners the most was the amount of hate mail they received and hate calls, telling them they wasted their money on an animal.
The people were hurt and confused. They had the money to spend. It wasn't government aid being redirected. Their decision. Their choice.
I've got four older dogs, ranging in age from 8-10 now. I don't know what I'll do when it's time.
Good for you, KRL.....
