Help Alberto save Poppy - surgery needed
A dog named Poppy needs emergency surgery - a $700 bill the family can't cover.

Poppy is my dog of two years. On 22 August we rushed to Puebla Veterinary Centre with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $700.
They have stabilized Poppy, but the treatment can't wait beyond October.
Poppy is more than a pet - Poppy got me through my hardest year. I have already put $115 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 Puebla Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $700 goes:
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $105
• Emergency surgery: $500
• Hospitalization (2 nights): $95
Every share and every dollar helps.

Sending strength, Alberto. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
take care, Alberto. Give Poppy a hug from me. Love from Rome.
sending strength. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Pune.
rooting for you. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless!
