"Sequoia" Faces Dim Future Without ACL Surgery
Donation protected
URGENT HELP NEEDED
Sequoia is an eight-year-old Australian Shepherd mix who is in urgent need of surgery due to a torn ACL. His injury is very painful and he has lost use of the affected leg.
The surgical procedure Sequoia requires is called tibial plateau leveling osteotomy, or TPLO. This
surgery has a proven track record and is an effective long-term solution for addressing ACL injury in dogs.
His owner, Lisa, cannot afford the surgery. She is a single mom doing the best she can to support her family and has exhausted all options.
If Sequoia can get this surgery, the vet says he will go on to live a good life. Otherwise, the only alternative is euthanasia.
We hope we can raise the majority of the cost for the procedure, which is $3500. Any amount will help and will be greatly appreciated.
Information about the procedure: https://www.topdoghealth.com/library/orthopedic-surgery/articles-surgery/tibial-plateau-leveling-osteotomy-tplo/
Link to Clinic: The information for the vet will be posted within 24 hours.
(Updates and vet records will be provided.)
In the event we fall short of the majority, donations will be refunded.
If you are unable to donate, you CAN share this gofundme campaign with friends and fellow animal lovers.
Again, every little bit helps.
Thank you for your consideration.
