Save Bruno: Ifeanyi can't afford the emergency vet

A three-legged dog named Bruno needs an operation to remove the blockage - a $400 bill the family can't cover.

Bruno is my three-legged dog of thirteen years. On 13 November we rushed to Lagos Veterinary Centre with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $400. They have stabilized Bruno, but the treatment can't wait beyond January. Bruno is more than a pet - Bruno is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $15 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 Lagos Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Bruno's recovery. Where the $400 goes: • Emergency surgery: $290 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $35 • Medication and follow-up visits: $15 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $60 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

      • is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ifeanyi

          Emergency surgery is $290 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Appreciate you taking the time.

      • Sending strength, Ifeanyi. Hope this works out for you. Don't give up

          Is there anything that isn't money that would help Ifeanyi?

                    It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Sakai so I could bring a meal.

                    • You're not alone, Ifeanyi. Shared it with a few friends. Blessings.

                      • Hope the recovery goes smoothly. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Badagry.

                        • Good luck. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Magelang this morning. Greetings from Magelang.
