Help Víctor save Buddy - surgery needed
A German shepherd named Buddy needs emergency surgery - a $2,000 bill the family can't cover.

Buddy is my German shepherd of three years. On 28 July we rushed to the Mesa Emergency Vet Clinic with bloat. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $2,000.
They have stabilized Buddy, but the treatment can't wait beyond November.
Buddy is more than a pet - Buddy is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $370 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 Mesa Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Buddy's recovery.
Where the $2,000 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $1,200
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $200
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $600
I hope life is good to you.
