Milo's bloat: help with the vet bill
Milo, Elżbieta's German shepherd, needs urgent treatment for bloat costing $850.
🇵🇱 Lesser Poland, Poland1,152 views
Milo is my German shepherd of nine years. On 18 November we rushed to Kraków Veterinary Centre with bloat. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $850.
They have stabilized Milo, but the treatment can't wait beyond February.
Milo is more than a pet - Milo is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $130 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 Kraków Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Milo's recovery.
Where the $850 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $340
• Hospitalization (2 nights): $290
• Medication and follow-up visits: $55
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $165
Thank you so much.
Updates from Elżbieta
Good news. Because of your gifts ($508 in total) we've started the first stage. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
We're at 57% thanks to 3 of you. I met with the vet clinic and confirmed the amounts. More news soon.

Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Kraków
praying for you, Elżbieta. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
thinking of you. Shared it with a few friends. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.
