Coco is my German shepherd of nine years. On 3 September we rushed to the Fresno Emergency Vet Clinic with bloat. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $2,150. They have stabilized Coco, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Coco is more than a pet - Coco got me through my hardest year. I have already put $175 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 the Fresno Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Coco's recovery. Where the $2,150 goes: • Emergency surgery: $1,550 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $370 • Medication and follow-up visits: $230 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

            It's all in the list in the story. emergency surgery is the big one at $1,550, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Ask me anything else.

        • Thinking of you and your family, Mason. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless

          • Hope the recovery goes smoothly. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Fresno

            • Good luck. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. Sent it to 35 people at work. Take care.
