I have a sense of how you feel, as my dog ran away on me years ago, and I was dreadfully scared of something like that. Luckily, it did not happen, however, it doesn't change the fact how scared and sad I was.

I don't have a lot to give, but count me in for helping out your pup. I know vet bills can be obscene, but to it's worth it to help your family member. With the outpouring of this forum community, it looks like we can help you and your wife cover a decent amount of the costs. Like a previous poster said, the money we want to help you with is for your puppy.

I wish him the best of luck through his recovery. *Pat on his head*

*edit* on a side note, and echoing the sentiments of a few of the other posters, I'm truly proud of being part of this forum after reading this thread. The outpour of condolences and assistance to Mayer is pure class by this community
