Help Budi save Pepper - surgery needed
A three-legged dog named Pepper needs orthopedic surgery - a $450 bill the family can't cover.
🇮🇩 DKI Jakarta, Indonesia1,362 views
Pepper is my three-legged dog of two years. On 29 August we rushed to the Jakarta Barat Emergency Vet Clinic with a broken leg after a road accident. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $450.
They have stabilized Pepper, but the treatment can't wait beyond December.
Pepper is more than a pet - Pepper walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. 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.
If more is raised than needed, the surplus goes to the Jakarta Barat Emergency Vet Clinic's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $450 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $330
• Hospitalization (4 nights): $100
• Medication and follow-up visits: $15
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $5
If you're reading this, thank you.
