Help fix Sandy's torn ACL and Hip

My name is Liz Finnegan, and I'm trying to raise money for my dog's surgery. Sandy is a young King Charles Spaniel, who was bought and trained for the purpose of serving as a support animal to my daughter, Layla, who has autism. She has taken care of Layla loyally for years, throughout a variety of trials.

Over the weekend, Sandy injured her leg. We took her to the vet, who informed us that she was born with a hip issue that we had never caught, and her tendency to lean too heavily to one side resulted in her being more prone to injury. Unfortunately, this injury came in the form of a torn ACL.

The cost of fixing her ACL and hip combined is estimated to be about $6500, not including the $500 bill today. We are asking for a little help, if possible, to help us cover the cost of her surgery. We know it is close to the holidays and things are tight for people, but anything that you can offer would be appreciated beyond words.
