Saving Poppy ❤️
Donation protected
This perfect little pup is called Poppy.
she Is my brothers working cocker spaniel she is only 5 years old .
not only is she sunshine in dog form she’s everything to us.
She wasn’t her usual self on Monday . Not eating and barely drinking , and not bouncing round as she usually does we took her to her usual vet who said there was nothing they could see wrong with her, but to bring her back next week if there was any further changes. We left being asked to give her painkillers and monitor her.
After other family members witnessed her so out of character they said to take her to another vet for a second opinion. This is what my brother did. The vet took an X-RAY and ultrasound and found a shadow or something obstructing her intestines.
The vet took her in for emergency surgery and said there is something there that can be removed but it will cost my brother around £4,600 Devastated at the findings and not ready to let her go we have rallied round to try and raise the funds but came up very short. We just don’t have this cash to spare. They wouldn’t take a payment plan but if If there was a way to save her , that was all we could do.
***** warning ⚠️ **** graphic photo of what. Was removed below *****
The new vet had said she wouldn’t have been alive without this removal that went undetected by the first vet.
In the vet’s opinion she is otherwise a young and healthy dog so we should continue to help her where we could.
poppy was out of surgery , and they made us aware they had to remove part of her bowel as she had an acorn stuck. Her bowel had rotten away because of this.
the bill is now at 2,500 and growing as the vets that gave her surgery cannot keep her in.We have transferred her to another vets to monitor her while she recovers but this is now going to cost an additional £500-£600 which we just cannot pull together.
This may only be just a dog that was unlucky but to us, my brother and our family she is our little ray of sunshine , part of our family . And we will do everything we can to make her well.
We are asking for any donations to help us cover this unexpected cost so we can give her the chance to recover and so my brother gets to take his best friend home again.
thank you for listening ❤️
