Ollie is my three-legged dog of nine years. On 3 September we rushed to the Nuremberg Emergency Vet Clinic with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $2,350. They have stabilized Ollie, but the treatment can't wait beyond October. Ollie is more than a pet - Ollie is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $200 toward the bills and asked for a payment plan. Whatever I can't raise, I'll repay to anyone who needs it back. Funds will be paid straight to the Nuremberg Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Ollie's recovery. Where the $2,350 goes: • Emergency surgery: $1,750 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $280 • Medication and follow-up visits: $220 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $100 Thank you so much. - Henry

Updates from Henry

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($565 in total) we've started the first stage. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Wanted to say thank you properly. 15% funded and I made the first payment toward diagnostics.

  3. Thank you all. We're at 10% now ($230). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the vet clinic and confirmed the amounts.

        Hope the recovery goes smoothly. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
