Unhappy Sick pup, no $$$

Hello my name is Jessica and I have a 18 month old sick Boston terrier, she has been sick since birth and keeps getting new symptoms. She started off with blood in here stool at 9 weeks and then at 6 months she was puking and having diarrhea. We tried different meds and foods but never found out what was wrong with her and it has only calm the problem down. Then at nine months still going through the same thing she started chewing everything. Now still going through the same thing about a month or two ago she started peeing in strange places(ie, my bed and on people) This past week she got red bumps on her all over and some of them have scabs and even bleed. I need help, I live alone and are doing a debt settlement program, my job just cut the bonuses three months ago and haven’t been able to give ot for the last two months which enabled me to pay for her to go to the vet as well pay other bills that I now cant pay. I need help please, I don’t want to lose my dog or have her get sicker. We live in south sunny Florida. Please help! Jessica and Zoey

Has the pup received treatment from a vet for any of the things you mentioned?
Has he seen a vet at all in the time you've had him? Up to date on shots, wormings, etc?

You should call the local vets and ask if they will take payments or let you write a post dated check or two and get this dog some care.
Sometimes the local Humane Societies will have programs to help owners with vet bills, or have thier vets see your dog for a nominal fee.

There is also a care credit that you can apply for through your vet, you should qualify and then he can get the care he needs and the care credit will cover it.

If all else fails, you may serve him best to cntact a Boston rescue and see if they can help, even if that means reliquishing him so he can get the care he needs.
