Juno is my German shepherd of thirteen years. On 12 September we rushed to Kansas City Veterinary Centre with severe tick fever. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $2,600. They have stabilized Juno, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Juno is more than a pet - Juno walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $170 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 Kansas City Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Juno's recovery. Where the $2,600 goes: • Emergency surgery: $1,800 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $560 • Medication and follow-up visits: $240 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
