Sad but true Rob i'm afraid....Are you eligible at all or have you contacted the PDSA??
My dog was from battersea cost me nothing due to her having her front leg severely dislocated before i got her..which healed naturally but twisted.
I looked into having it fixed but was quoted £1,500-£3k plus aftercare with no gaurantee's that it would actually work and if it didn't then her leg would need to be amputated!!!so i didn't bother and so far she's still coping runs,walks ok and gotta watch her weight so there's not to much weight on it stressing her muscles and heart.
But anyways i shopped around rang Pdsa as i was outta work at the time and other organisations just to see whats what and if i could get any help with the costs but shockingly when i rang the RSPCA they told me that because i didn't get her from them they wouldn't help...So basically if a dog is suffering and its not from the rspca there happy to let the animal suffer!!!!!
Needless to say i'm not a fan of the rspca......
I'd deffo try the pdsa mate if ones close to you..they won't let a dog suffer just down to finacial issues
