That is a bit odd, and makes me wonder why a vet would refuse a paying customer trying to help a homeless dog. "Sparkling Korea" once again.


He was probably full up on clients and didn't want to take any more. Refusing care is Un-American, but remember, we're not in Kansas anymore.


They probably didn't trust the OP to pay the bills.

actually we went to a different vet and the other vet wasnt full up on clients either....he knew we would pay because we had bought many things from him in the past... however this is not a thread about vets

this is a thread to help this dog get a home....

Well, I hope he gets one. I was just offering a possible explanation for why you were turned away ... because that almost happened to me in Japan with a stray cat. In the end, we were lucky and the vet accepted him as a patient, and he eventually got adopted ... but it could have gone the other way because I was new in town and had no history with any of the local vets. Unfortunately there's no guarantee you'll be helped anywhere if you can't be trusted to pay ... not you personally, OP, but anyone.
