Teddy is my dog of nine years. On 14 August we rushed to the Kilkenny Emergency Vet Clinic with kidney failure. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $800. They have stabilized Teddy, but the treatment can't wait beyond October. Teddy is more than a pet - Teddy got me through my hardest year. I have already put $115 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 Kilkenny Emergency Vet Clinic's charity fund for other animals. Where the $800 goes: • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $130 • Medication and follow-up visits: $290 • Hospitalization (4 nights): $380 If you're reading this, thank you.
