Save Willow: Nina can't afford the emergency vet

A three-legged dog named Willow needs a hospital stay and surgery - a $2,150 bill the family can't cover.

Willow is my three-legged dog of three years. On 9 August we rushed to Breda Veterinary Centre with a broken leg after a road accident. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $2,150. They have stabilized Willow, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Willow is more than a pet - Willow walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $125 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 Breda Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Willow's recovery. Where the $2,150 goes: • Hospitalization (3 nights): $370 • Medication and follow-up visits: $125 • Emergency surgery: $1,655 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Nina

Updates from Nina

  1. Wanted to say thank you properly. 17% funded and I made the first payment toward emergency surgery.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($320 in total) the plan for medication and follow-up visits is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Quick update: $70 raised so far (3%). the first invoice got paid this week. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

    Hope it all works out, Nina. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Onitsha.

      Hope it all works out. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Philadelphia.
