Bruno is my German shepherd of two years. On 31 August we rushed to Winnipeg Veterinary Centre with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $1,150. They have stabilized Bruno, but the treatment can't wait beyond December. Bruno is more than a pet - Bruno got me through my hardest year. I have already put $155 toward the bills and asked for a payment plan. Whatever I can't raise, I'll repay to anyone who needs it back. Funds will be paid straight to Winnipeg Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Bruno's recovery. Where the $1,150 goes: • Hospitalization (4 nights): $530 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $360 • Medication and follow-up visits: $260 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
