Emergency vet bill for Ziggy in Lucknow

Ziggy is my German shepherd of six years. On 30 September we rushed to Lucknow Veterinary Centre with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $400.
They have stabilized Ziggy, but the treatment can't wait beyond November.
Ziggy is more than a pet - Ziggy is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $40 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 Lucknow Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Ziggy's recovery.
Where the $400 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $280
• Medication and follow-up visits: $25
• Hospitalization (4 nights): $95
I hope life is good to you.
