Pepper is my dog of two years. On 2 May we rushed to Leeds Veterinary Centre with severe tick fever. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $2,150. They have stabilized Pepper, but the treatment can't wait beyond July. Pepper is more than a pet - Pepper got me through my hardest year. I have already put $290 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 Leeds Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Pepper's recovery. Where the $2,150 goes: • Emergency surgery: $1,300 • Hospitalization (4 nights): $550 • Medication and follow-up visits: $115 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $185 If you're reading this, thank you.
