Hello, my name is Andrea and I'm trying to raise money to keep from having to put our dog down. We took him to vet and got 3 estimates that ranged from $1800 to $2000 for a needed surgery. Unbelievable. The poor guy is dealing with it for now but you can see he's uncomfortable and hes getting worse. It breaks my heart to see him like this, and even the thought of having to put him down knowing he could make a full recovery if we had the money for the surgery.
The vet said he must have got a dental infection that spread up behind his eye, and the build up of pressure pushed his eyeball out of the socket suddenly while he was running and playing in the back yard. He never showed any signs or symptoms so this was unexpected and shocking to us. You see, we've had tippy since the day he was born just before Halloween in 2017. He is a Yorkie/ Chihuahua mix. He likes to play fetch with his babies(toys) every night before bed. And if you tell him to "Play Coyote" he look up at the sky and he will Howl, and howl and play coyote. It's the cutest thing you've ever seen. I can't stand to see him uncomfortable and miserable it's so hard. Like seeing your child in pain when there's nothing you can do.... but ask for help.
Gathering money takes time , and time is ticking by and especially with how things are going in the world right now, This is definitely hard reaching out asking friends, and family for help when most have been living pay check to paycheck already and to now to ask strangers for help , humbles me. I'm just sick to my stomach and I don't know what else to do. I'm in a panic and I hope this all makes sense. I can't stand to see him uncomfortable and miserable and he doesn't deserve to go out this way, so please if you can help poor Tippy tip, My family and I will be forever grateful.
Thank you
