Help Rocco walk again!
Donation protected
My beloved 8 year old shih tzu Rocco had recently loss feeling in his back legs. We immediately took him to the hospital and they diagnosed him wih IVDD(Intervertebral Disc Disease). He received emergency surgery on his back/spine that went well with no complications. After the surgery, the doctor stated he now has feeling in both legs! They are now working on him to urinate on his own. Rocco will be at the hospital for at least 5 days to heal up and get post opt treatment.
As you can imagine, the cost for the surgery and care is extremely steep. Surgery and stay at the hospital is around $10,000. To be transparent, I have attached a copy of the bill showing the breakdown of the costs. This does not include the cost for rehab/medications/special equipment, which can take 4 to 8 weeks. All funds will be 100% used the help pay his medical bills and to get him walking again.
Rocco has brought me so much happiness in my life and the least I could do is make sure I could do everything in my power to get him healthy again. He is a gentle soul, loves kids, being petted and belly rubs, sleeping, stealing peoples socks and eating snacks. Any small donation or sharing of this campaign would be so deeply appreciated.
