God bless people like you! I'm a dog lover as well and would do the same for my furry friends. You can always get another Jeep and I'm sure you will. Good luck
Thanks much. Appreciate it!

If it helps you out check into Care Credit. I didn’t have to but I used it on my now 14 year old Red Nose Pit about 8 years ago when she had some cancerous tumors removed. Made the cost interest free for 24 months.
Good luck to your friend and may she have a speedy recovery.
Thanks for the info Victor. Don't need to at this point, but it never hurts to know of other resources just in case. Thanks again!

Thanks! Exactly correct on the knee injury as well.
Our specialist surgeon was great. We ended up sleeping with ours for a while with a bed mattress in the middle of an xpen so we could get up and help her go out. When she healed it was as if it never happened. Stronger than the other leg in fact.

Thanks and that recovery report is wonderful news! Glad she is doing great now! You are truly a caring individual that loves animals!

Best of luck and hope all goes well on your dogs surgery. If you buy another JT and don't plan to use the functions of the Rubicon or the Mojave save yourself a lot of money and just get the Sport S or other lower end package.

Your priorities are in line - take care of the pup and family now and save for another Jeep in the future. Best of luck :fist bump::beer:

Thumbs up on the Care Credit. I used it for my 2 goldarn retrievers. Cooper had skin cancer. Jake blew his knee out. Care Credit worked out great. Jake was 10 yrs old when he blew his knee out. After surgery, he didn't want to move. It was all we could do to motive him. He ended up with hip dysplasia. Later on with arthritis in his lower back. It was all he could do to move. Had to put him down about 2 yrs after surgery.

Thanks and yes, I will probably own another Jeep. The surgery is going to be about $5000.00 and we love her so we will get her knee repaired. Specialized surgery. Hard to say no to those sad eyes and see her limping all the time. Picture just before she hurt her knee.

Reminds me a ton of my border collie. I’d sell my own kidney to get her a new one if it came to it. Screw the jeep, pet dogs.

Sorry Russ about Jake. Sometimes even with the best surgery things don't work out as planned. You did what you could and now he is no longer in pain since he is over the rainbow bridge.

Jeeps are just material objects. You can buy another. Family and pets are special. I have two dogs who besides my wife are my best friends. I will do anything for my dogs.

Good luck and take care.

Hi Jeff. It is no secret what I traded for. Because of the value of the Jeep Gladiator Rubicon being worth more than I paid for it, I traded it for a Ford Ranger XLT Tremor. So even though I would of never used all the features of the Gladiator Rubicon, with the Ranger I still have a off road truck that I think will work for me. Can it do what the Rubicon will do, no way. But again, it should work for me, for now anyway. Never know, I may get another Jeep, however I needed the extra money that I got back for doing some things around the home, getting some accessories for the Ranger, and getting Sasha's knee surgery done. I am very blessed with what I have, however like most of us, we want to try and save money where we can and not run our savings too low. Especially at my age of almost 68!
