Emergency vet bill for Bruno in Reading
A German shepherd named Bruno needs a hospital stay and surgery - a $2,300 bill the family can't cover.

Bruno is my German shepherd of eleven years. On 13 December we rushed to Reading Animal Hospital with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $2,300.
They have stabilized Bruno, but the treatment can't wait beyond February.
Bruno is more than a pet - Bruno walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $380 toward the bills and asked for a payment plan.
Whatever I can't raise, I'll repay to anyone who needs it back.
If more is raised than needed, the surplus goes to Reading Animal Hospital's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $2,300 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $1,500
• Hospitalization (2 nights): $280
• Medication and follow-up visits: $130
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $390
I hope life is good to you.

You're not alone. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless
Praying for you, Leo. Shared this with my family. God bless
sending love, Leo. Give Bruno a hug from me!
You're not alone, Leo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Rabat.
Sending good thoughts, Leo. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
Take care, Leo. Shared it with a few friends. After 14 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings
Sending love. Give Bruno a hug from me. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Reading.
