Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Female | spayed | 16 years and 7 months old | 80 lbs
Our 15 year old was attacked by a pit bull this morning. She has a bite on the side of her neck. The problem is, we can't get near her because she will bite us. Our dog bites if you try to do any medical procedure on her. We have medications to calm her down, but, she won't eat right now. We had a $700 vet bill last month, and we are flat broke right now and can't afford $700 to sedate her. What can we do to get her to the vet?
