Bruno is my three-legged dog of three years. On 17 June we rushed to Madrid Veterinary Centre with bloat. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $1,100.
They have stabilized Bruno, but the treatment can't wait beyond July.
Bruno is more than a pet - Bruno is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $165 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 Madrid Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $1,100 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $470
• Hospitalization (4 nights): $300
• Medication and follow-up visits: $220
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $110
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Sending strength. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Rochester but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Rochester.
Praying for you, Carmen. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Thinking of you, Carmen. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best
Wishing you the best. Poor Bruno, hope they feel better soon
