Help Camila save Ollie - surgery needed

A three-legged dog named Ollie needs an operation to remove the blockage - a $2,950 bill the family can't cover.

Ollie is my three-legged dog of thirteen years. On 23 August we rushed to Corpus Christi Veterinary Centre with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $2,950. They have stabilized Ollie, but the treatment can't wait beyond October. Ollie is more than a pet - Ollie is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $220 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 Corpus Christi Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals. Where the $2,950 goes: • Emergency surgery: $1,900 • Hospitalization (4 nights): $630 • Medication and follow-up visits: $210 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $210 Every share and every dollar helps.
