A dog named Ginger needs a hospital stay and surgery - a $800 bill the family can't cover.

Ginger is my dog of eleven years. On 18 September we rushed to the Bogotá Emergency Vet Clinic with pyometra. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $800. They have stabilized Ginger, but the treatment can't wait beyond December. Ginger is more than a pet - Ginger walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $95 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 the Bogotá Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Ginger's recovery. Where the $800 goes: • Emergency surgery: $520 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $165 • Medication and follow-up visits: $80 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $35 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Víctor
