Help Oakley the Pom get new hips
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Laura. I’m an RMT in St. Albert, Canada and I’m hoping to raise money to help cover the costs for my dogs hip surgeries. Oakley is a 12 year old Pomeranian and he’s been my cuddly companion his whole life. He’s been there for me when I needed a paw to hold and a furry shoulder to cry on. We’ve been on many adventures together and he’s left his paw prints on the hearts of many who’ve met him. I know he’s had a good life already but he still has so much life left in him that I can’t say goodbye just yet…
Oakley has DJD (degenerative joint disease) in both his hips that requires him to have total hip replacement (THR) surgeries. Thankfully, our wonderful vet, Dr. Cecilia at Albany Veterinary Clinic, connected us with Dr. Anthony at Century Park Animal Hospital who is willing to do Oakley’s surgeries.
In October 2023 we welcomed home a baby girl who changed our lives forever. She’s brought us so much love, laughter and happiness and we feel so blessed to now be called parents. But while also starting a family, we’ve faced a few financial hardships this past year and with todays economy (and the crazy cost of formula lol) it really makes it a struggle to make ends meet.
And so I’m really hoping that we can somehow raise enough money for our little Oakley to get the TLC he deserves because our family just cant afford it right now.
I know some people would just say “just put the dog down” and that “he’s just a dog”. But he’s not… he’s part of our family and he’s my furry son. His unconditional love and companionship is deserving enough for him to get the care he needs.
So if you have anything to spare and donate to little Oakley it would mean the entire world to us and to him.
Thank you,
Laura (Oakley’s Momma)
