i'm glad your dog expects a full recovery!

i don't really understand how people don't have insurance for their pets though....

It's worthwhile, especially if you're the type who wouldn't think twice about shelling out $3000 to save your pet's life. I don't think the insurance companies push pet insurance nearly enough. Most people don't realize it exists.

In the OP's case, he's paying the $3000 because it was his roommate's dog, and he was responsible for it when it got out and got hit by a car. The fact that he's willing to do this shows that he's a very compassionate person, as well as someone who'd be a wonderful friend to have.
