Save Archie: Gayan can't afford the emergency vet
A German shepherd named Archie needs a hospital stay and surgery - a $600 bill the family can't cover.
🇱🇰 Western, Sri LankaPosted Oct 1, 20262,030 views
Archie is my German shepherd of thirteen years. On 5 September we rushed to Negombo Veterinary Centre with bloat. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $600.
They have stabilized Archie, but the treatment can't wait beyond November.
Archie is more than a pet - Archie walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $60 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 Negombo Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Archie's recovery.
Where the $600 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $420
• Hospitalization (2 nights): $80
• Medication and follow-up visits: $55
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $45
Every share and every dollar helps.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Gayan
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. emergency surgery comes first ($420) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. It helps to be asked.
Give Archie a hug from me. Please keep us posted. Blessings.
Hang in there, Gayan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Negombo!
Praying for you, Gayan. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. Take care.
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Worcester donated after I showed her your page.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Jeddah.
Keep going, Gayan. Give Archie a hug from me. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care.
Wishing you the best, Gayan. Hope the recovery goes smoothly. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless
I hope things turn around soon. I hope November is when things finally get easier. God bless.
