Max is my three-legged dog of thirteen years. On 8 May we rushed to Rawalpindi Veterinary Centre with a tumor on the spleen. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $305.
They have stabilized Max, but the treatment can't wait beyond July.
Max is more than a pet - Max is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $40 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 Rawalpindi Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Max's recovery.
Where the $305 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $220
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $55
• Medication and follow-up visits: $25
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $5
Glad we found this place.

Hang in there. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. Take care
What exactly is the $305 for?
Emergency surgery is $220 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks, that means a lot.
rooting for you. Give Max a hug from me. All the best!
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Rawalpindi.
Stay strong, Rabia. Hope the recovery goes smoothly
Rooting for you. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in London this morning. Love from London.
