What a week, huh Bullitt?!

Bullitt was offered the opportunity to chase some rabbits in a rural back yard, but unlike the thousands of times previously, it was not much fun 🙃

She fractured both bones in her right front leg. Turns out orthopedic surgery is EXPENSIVE. For about 48 hours it was looking like she might lose her leg, but based on what I know about her, Karelian Bear Dogs generally, and the terrain where she lives and works (keeping bears out of yard, trash, vehicles, and house), that would have been worse than death. Putting her down was also being considered.

But we got a lot of support and a credit card that wasn't maxed out and got her fixed. On her end, everything seems great. The ledger balance tells a very different story though and so, here I am, offering my first pre-sale (they are SO STRESSFUL) in over a year.

We have over $6k in high interest debt to pay, which isn't going to go away easily. So, I'm asking for your business and support. Everything is live now on my website.

Unbelievably gracious for your support 🙏

Hi — Came over from @sharktoof page! Would love to donate to help you with Bullitt’s expenses, but doing my best to acquire less “stuff” in my house. Do you have a general donation link that doesn’t require purchasing an item, or even a Venmo we could send some funds to? 🫶 Wishing Bullitt a speedy recovery!

I have worked with dogs for 15 years of every single breed, including working lines like this. I have seen countless dogs recover from amputations as if nothing ever happened. It would have been such a tragedy to put this beautiful dog down rather than have him live as a tripod! I think we do dogs such a disservice - they have no ego and they adapt far better than humans ever will. I'm glad you were able to work it out but what a sad outcome that would have been for everyone had you made that different choice.
