Save Sunny: Ronke can't afford the emergency vet
A dog named Sunny needs orthopedic surgery - a $300 bill the family can't cover.
🇳🇬 Epe, Lagos, Nigeria956 views
Sunny is my dog of three years. On 1 September we rushed to the Epe Emergency Vet Clinic with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $300.
They have stabilized Sunny, but the treatment can't wait beyond November.
Sunny is more than a pet - Sunny is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $50 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 Epe Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Sunny's recovery.
Where the $300 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $135
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $70
• Medication and follow-up visits: $35
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $60
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Good luck, Ronke. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean.
Sending good thoughts, Ronke. Your post was clear and honest. Put this on a community board in Hồ Chí Minh City this morning. Take care.
Sending love. Hope the recovery goes smoothly. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Epe.
