Double Hip Replacement for Satchel

Donation protected
Hi Everyone, 
This is Satchel aka. Dodo. He is an 8 month old Golden Retriever born on the 12th of August 2019. He is your usual overly excited puppy, who loves snuggles, ripping apart toys and playing with his doggy brother Hiccup. 

About a month ago Satchel started to develop a slight limp,  we initially assumed he has just sprained his leg playing, but to be safe we took him to the vet the next day. Once at the vets we got some rather shocking news, it was far more serious than we could have imagined. Satchel had Hip Dysplasia, and would require a double hip replacement.  

He had his left hip replacement replaced on the 14th of April 2020, and will need a replacement on his right hip in 4 weeks time this being roughly the 15th of May 2020. 

As it can be imaged all of this came as quite a shock, and has been extremely stressful not only in terms of the well being of our puppy, but in terms of the financial costs.  The costs of each hip replacement is £7,750, which totals £15,500 for both hips. Although we do have pet insurance they are only able to cover £4,000, meaning we still have to find £11,500 to cover the difference. 

Any donations that you could provide no matter the size would be greatly appreciated. I will of course be updating the page and any donors about his progress and recovery.
