Need moral support and help
My 8 year old dachsund tried to jump on the couch the other day and hurt himself badly. The vet said he got the disk disease that many dachshunds have. He has lost almost all feeling in his back legs ...

There is a specialist in Illinois who does thousands of doxies a year.
His name is Dr. Gendreaux. Can't think of the name of the town right this minute. But if your vet is any kind of vet he can/should refer you to him if you ask. And trust me the cost is NOT $8,500.
Dr. Gendreaux did surgery on my Dobe a few years back. She was literally paralyzed from the neck down with the same type of disc problem the doxies have. He is nothing short of a miracle worker. He has his own special way of removing and repairing the discs in the spine.
When we came in as an emergency he had 20 Doxies in from across the US waiting to be operated on that night.
8 hours later my dobe walked out of his clinic without a limp and you couldn't even see where he went in to do it. Plastic surgeons in Hollywood should have such plastic surgery talent.
