Save Finn: Daniele can't afford the emergency vet

A three-legged dog named Finn needs an operation to remove the blockage - a $1,050 bill the family can't cover.

Finn is my three-legged dog of thirteen years. On 14 January we rushed to Latina Veterinary Centre with severe tick fever. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $1,050. They have stabilized Finn, but the treatment can't wait beyond March. Finn is more than a pet - Finn is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $195 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 Latina Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Finn's recovery. Where the $1,050 goes: • Medication and follow-up visits: $70 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $110 • Emergency surgery: $870 If you're reading this, thank you. - Daniele

Updates from Daniele

  1. Small update. $343 so far, I made the first payment toward medication and follow-up visits.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 10% now ($110). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward emergency surgery.
