Help Carmen save Milo - surgery needed
A three-legged dog named Milo needs emergency surgery - a $650 bill the family can't cover.
🇪🇸 San Sebastián, Basque Country, Spain1,007 views
Milo is my three-legged dog of eleven years. On 28 November we rushed to San Sebastián Veterinary Centre with a broken leg after a road accident. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $650.
They have stabilized Milo, but the treatment can't wait beyond February.
Milo is more than a pet - Milo is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $145 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 San Sebastián Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $650 goes:
• Hospitalization (2 nights): $340
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $120
• Medication and follow-up visits: $190
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
Updates from Carmen
Good news. Because of your gifts ($311 in total) the plan for medication and follow-up visits is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Rooting for you, Carmen. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. Please keep us posted
Best of luck, Carmen. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of San Sebastián.
hope you get there. Thinking of San Sebastián.
Rooting for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
wishing you peace, Carmen. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best
This could happen to any of us. I hope February is when things finally get easier
