Hazel is my rescue greyhound of three years. On 10 March we rushed to the Mexicali Emergency Vet Clinic with bloat. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $600. They have stabilized Hazel, but the treatment can't wait beyond June. Hazel is more than a pet - Hazel is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $105 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 the Mexicali Emergency Vet Clinic's charity fund for other animals. Where the $600 goes: • Medication and follow-up visits: $85 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $90 • Emergency surgery: $425 I hope life is good to you.

Updates from Salvador

  1. Quick update: $136 raised so far (23%). I made the first payment toward medication and follow-up visits. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 16% now ($95). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward medication and follow-up visits.

                Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Salvador

                • Salvador SalazarOwnerAnswerID verified

                  Sure. The biggest one is medication and follow-up visits, $85. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. It helps to be asked.

              • we've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.

                • Sending love, Salvador. Gave what I could, wish it was more.

                  • Rooting for you, Salvador. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Gazipur
