Archie is my German shepherd of three years. On 2 May we rushed to Lviv Veterinary Centre with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $250. They have stabilized Archie, but the treatment can't wait beyond July. Archie is more than a pet - Archie is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $35 toward the bills and asked for a payment plan. Whatever I can't raise, I'll repay to anyone who needs it back. If more is raised than needed, the surplus goes to Lviv Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals. Where the $250 goes: • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $25 • Emergency surgery: $190 • Medication and follow-up visits: $35 Thank you so much.
