Cheddar Biscuit's Hospital Bills
Donation protected
One day after moving into our new house, we got our perfect little puppy Labradoodle Cheddar Biscuit.
Sadly, less than a week later we found ourselves taking her to the vet. We got medicine to treat what the doctor thought was a bacterial infection. The next day, we woke up to more trouble and the vet suggested we take her to the hospital.
The hospital discovered that Cheddar had contracted Parvovirus somewhere along the way. We don't know when, and we probably never will. All we knew was that she had to stay under 24 hour surveillance with IV tubes and liquids and medicines constantly flowing through her small, weak body.
She was a strong little pup for a couple days, but on the third day of round-the-clock isolated care, things took a severe turn for the worst and we lost our little girl.
Now, we didn't have her in our house for even a full week, but she was definitely a part of the family. I can't explain it in words here, but her mannerisms and attitude and really everything about her made us feel like she was meant to be our dog. She was perfect for our lives.
It's been a very trying time for us these past couple weeks and we feel empty and lost - emotionally and financially.
We tried to do all we could for her, but the constant monitoring and medicine ended up being more money than we can actually afford so early in our home ownership. The grand total after adding it up was $3,000. That's a large sum that we weren't anticipating to need so soon.
Cheddar Biscuit will always be in our hearts and memories and she will always be part of our house. If anyone would like to donate to the cause we would greatly appreciate it.
