Thelma Needs ACL Surgery
Donation protected
Thelma is a 4 year old rescue pit that is the world to her Mommy & Daddy. ( and canine sister Louise)
Thelma was having some trouble walking,after she was stung by over a hundred Africanized bees. Her parents think she damaged her ACL during this time, while she was frantically running blind (she was stung in her eyes) through the yard.
When her mommy made the doctor appointment, she was favoring one leg. A few days later it was worse, to to the point where Thelma was walking hunched over and keeping her right leg off the ground.
It was then that they had discovered Thelma, had torn her ACL. She indeed needs surgery. The initial cost is roughly between $2,700.00 & $3,500. Depending on which surgical procedure the surgeon does. It has been recommended that Thelma have the TPLO.
Thelma’s family loves her very much and is committed to doing whatever they can to get her feeling better. However, like most couples, they do not have those kinds of funds available. They are selling personal items, applying for loans, checking out available credit, etc. Care credit has approved $500.00.
Any donation to helping Thelma is greatly appreciated.
The monies will be used will go directly to Thelma’s surgery and her aftercare, as she will need therapy after surgery.
We already purchased a kennel to keep her in so she can rest now and after surgery. Thelma is currently taking Dermaxx an anti-inflammatory and Tramadol for pain,
Thank you so much for any consideration you can give to helping us make Thelma feel better. Your kindness is VERY much appreciated!!!
**Note: Any additional money that is raised will be directly donated to a local Animal Rescue Shelter!!***
