Benjamins Teeth Infection

Hi, My name is Emily and my dog Benjamin is my darling. I took him to the vet and the vet says he has a severe infection in his teeth. He said they are dripping blood and pus and he needs them extracted now. He said he must be in terrible pain.

I had never owned a dog as an adult and was too stupid to realize what I was doing to him. I took him every year for his yearly checkup but the vet always had to muzzle him so never looked at his teeth. (This never dawned on me)

Common sense now tells me how stupid I was but there are no takebacks so I feel terrible.

Thrive affordable vet care on oltorf is his vet and he gave me an estimate for the extractions for 3028.00 they said it could possibly be only 1913.51 but they would not know until they did the extractions therefore I should come prepared to pay the full amount. { They said it depends on how difficult they are to pull.)

I called emancipet but they said they cannot help me because it is considered a level 4 and they cannot do level 4's.

I am a widow living on a very limited income so will never be able to afford this but can't stand to see him suffer due to my stupidity and neglect so do not know what to do except ask for help.

Any help is appreciated as are prayers. Thank you for listening to my story.
