My son inherited his father's yorkies after passing away..... my son was not aware of the time an energy that went into caring for a yorkie....
1 male, and a female... male was a tea cup.. weighed a hole 1 1/2 LBS.
My son was young, turned 18 an moved out, call me mean, or a B****, but when he moved, I made him take the dogs with him.. I refused to take care of his responsabilitys for him..
He needed to learn that life isn't all fun an games, an there's responsabiltys that come with everyday life...
He ended up buying a male husky pup, not knowing anything about them, just loved there look, wanted one, got one..
U can see where I'm going, rite?
It's beenough a month now since my son had to have the tea cup york, put down, due to a broken jaw, caused by the now 2 yr old husky attacking him, for walking by him, as he was licking up melted ice cream.. that dripped on the floor..(not 1st time he attacked dogs, just 1st time he caused YORKIES serous injury!)
Broke tea cup yorkies jaw, end up putting him down, it was so server, an he, couldn't afford to pay for surgerys, if they could of done them, but with his age, an bone deterration there was not much they could do.
This was a very sad day, for my son, an I should of left it alone, but I had to say it...... u see I had a 8 yr old Chihuahua named snickers, that I had since a pup. When my son moved home the husky and my snickers both males didn't get along, suddenly none of the little dogs could run around on the ground without being harassed by the husky... long story short my Snickers died after husky attacked him.. I held my Snickers in my arms an watched him suffer an die, I could do nothing, by time I made to a vet he would of been gone.
So the last few minutes of his life I held him close an told him to let go, I'd be ok, an see him again someday... I watched his eyes tears and struggle to breath, his neck was broke, and I was very ANGRY, more angry at my son when he showed no care about what just happened. .. no apologies, nothing....and he himself grow up with snickers, he named him an picked him out.... an the cold heartless person my son has become, is not the child I raised.
I'd say carma, came an kicked him in the ass, with the yorkie, but carma can't be cruel, the yorkie didn't do anything, didn't deserve what he got...
Now barely a month since the yorkie got put down, the husky did it again, he attacked the other yorkie, now jaw is messed up.... this time we have no money to help her, or put her down, nothing.... my son had to do a line of credit on the tea cup, which was maxed out then... I'm broke, he is broke.. and the Blaine emergency vet will not treat if u have no money!!!! They don't care, I watched them turn a dog away that was hit by a car an NEEDED CARE BADLY!! THEY DON'T CARE... they won't do payments nothing!!! Really makes me think of opening a vet service that won't turn server cases away... an have a free vet clinic 1x monthly.. get vets to donate there time....
I don't no what to do....?
Besides find new home for husky..... my son wants him gone now!!
I'm worried about his yorkie.........

Yeah, it might be time to put the husky down before it attacks and kills another dog or worse
I don't know where you are right now, but in the US at least there's no expectation that you'll have your animal treated without payment. We can't even get decent healthcare for poor people over here, let alone our pets.
In future, don't try to teach people responsibility at the expense of pets, and never, ever take an animal with a history of aggression (deadly or otherwise) into your home unless you are ready to take responsibility for all the damage it does.
If the dog was exhibiting aggression towards other dogs from the start, there's a chance it could have been saved with the help of a good trainer and careful ownership, especially since this behaviour appears to have been repeatable and not random, but once it hurt a single dog to that degree the consideration should have been made to put it down immediately
Many municipalities require that after the second bite for a reason, and that's because it constitutes a pattern of behaviour for the dog and negligence for the owner
Rehoming the husky without a full and proper disclosure of what it has done would be the worst thing you could do. You can try finding a husky rescue that is willing to take on the burden of caring for that dog, but if it has a three dog kill count, good fucking luck. For the sake of other dogs, yourselves, and the dog that has to endure whatever is causing its aggression, the only ethical response you could have is to put it down.
The only advice I can offer on the other dog is to find another vet who can help other than this one particular one, who can accept credit. Leaving the poor dog to suffer is pretty much the second worst thing you could do from here out.

If you cannot afford the vet bill, you should also look into Care Credit. It's a medical and veterinary credit card with 0% apr for 6 months to cover unforeseen hospital and veterinarian bills. The majority of vet practices do not do any form of payment plans and demand at least half payment up front because there is an incredibly high delinquency rate, people get halfway through paying and just ditch their pets. Usually your only option is to draw credit from a secondary source, like Care Credit or another form of credit line, to make your own payment plan. This does require having good enough credit to afford, however.
Your other option is to find a local veterinary teaching hospital or local nonprofit clinics, which may involve driving elsewhere in your state, to see if they have discounted or free clinics for training veterinarians.
