Maple is my German shepherd of six years. On 27 June we rushed to Saint Petersburg Animal Hospital with bloat. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $850. They have stabilized Maple, but the treatment can't wait beyond August. Maple is more than a pet - Maple got me through my hardest year. I have already put $55 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 Saint Petersburg Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Maple's recovery. Where the $850 goes: • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $90 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $190 • Emergency surgery: $570 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
