Kiwi's THR- Total Hip Replacement

My name is Kim and this fundraiser is for Kiwi who stole my heart many moons ago. We are her 2nd home as she was a rescue pup through Artic Rescue and Pilots for Paws. She came to us from California after her elderly owner passed and family members did not want her. Mrs. Kiwi is the sweetest of pups and does have health issues we have been treating since she's been adopted. She has had eyelid surgery due to a growth and is monitored for her K9 Lupis which affects her nose. She sees a dermatologist for this when there are flare-ups and is kept on regular creams. She's also slowly losing her sight. This sweet gal has been through a lot but is a fighter.

Unfortunately, recently her right hip was popped out of the socket and we are informed her hip dysplasia makes popping it back in not possible. THO (Total Hip Replacement) is the best option for her to have a more comfortable recovery. I want to give this sweet gal the comfortable golden years she deserves. I'm going through with the procedure regardless of the cost of 7800.00 USD, but it does place a significant strain on me.

I am recently divorced, a single mom, a full-time student (going into education), and am limited to working park time for multiple reasons. Any assistance at all would mean the world and relieve a bit of stress.

The funds raised will go directly to paying off the bill for this procedure which includes:

-The procedure itself

-Blood Work

-A new orthopedic bed to assist with comfort during recovery (6-12 weeks)

-Pain meds

-Possible physical therapy...we won't know till after the procedure performed on 10/12/23 through Granite Veterinary Specialist here in Utah.
