Pepper is my three-legged dog of two years. On 28 March we rushed to the Moscow Emergency Vet Clinic with a broken leg after a road accident. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $700. They have stabilized Pepper, but the treatment can't wait beyond June. Pepper is more than a pet - Pepper got me through my hardest year. I have already put $60 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 Moscow Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Pepper's recovery. Where the $700 goes: • Emergency surgery: $280 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $260 • Medication and follow-up visits: $75 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $85 Thanks for reading all this.
