Holy cow! As a Rotty owner myself (beautiful Ruby),and shes had plenty of damn problems, but 10k, holy shmoly man, I can afford it too, but ahhh, thats so killer. For the record, I probably woulda done it too.
List of problems: suffered from Panosteitis until she was 2, tore ACL when 1.5 years old, had eye entropy surgery. The toughest was the ACL. Shes 7 now, suffers from pretty terrible arthritis which I combat with different stuff.
Tomorrow, my brother is taking his doberman shipped to the US from Serbia 3 hours away to the doggie dentist, where he has the most fucked up teeth you have ever seen. They are made of glass. My brother is already in over 7g's on the teeth, the dog is about to turn 2...
Anyways, you are a great human being and I am glad rottys are getting love like that.
This particular dog made himself an inside one and never quite realized he was too big to be a lapdog. We never had to ask him to do something, when the car was going out the gate for instance, he would wander up the stairs where he knew he was supposed to be without prompting. Later after I moved away he would play passive aggressive when I visited, ignoring me but betrayed by his waging tail banging on the ground.
I can't say we would have done the same for most other dogs we've had, but this one was special and we got another 8 years out of him.
