Help Ezekiel save Rocky - surgery needed
Rocky, Ezekiel's rescue greyhound, needs urgent treatment for bloat costing $1,500.
🇺🇸 United States1,596 views
Rocky is my rescue greyhound of three years. On 9 June we rushed to New Orleans Veterinary Centre with bloat. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $1,500.
They have stabilized Rocky, but the treatment can't wait beyond August.
Rocky is more than a pet - Rocky is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $350 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 New Orleans Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $1,500 goes:
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $660
• Medication and follow-up visits: $150
• Emergency surgery: $690
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
