Support Moose- Emergency Surgery
Donation protected
Meet Moose, our 5 month old boxer. Moose is a happy, playful and extremely lovable puppy! Unfortunately he needs emergency surgery to save his life due to a fight with another dog. He sustained many punctures on his neck and body but his head/face has been severly injured. Moose has multiple fractures on the left side of his face in the cheekbone area, teeth missing with bone exposed and he has lost his left eye. We were able to get him to an emergency vet, where they worked all night to get him stabilized. He is currently being cared for in ICU until Monday morning when we hope he will be stable enough to handle surgery. This morning, Moose started to show his warrior spirit by lifting his head to look around and even tried to sit up momentarily. We know he is not going to give up and neither will we. Moose is our baby boy and we know that with the best care, he can come home and return to a happy life.
Sadly as you all know, veterinary care is a pay as you go service. In a few short hours we have already paid nearly $5,000 for his emergency care, and he has not even had surgical care yet, which we are told will easily push us over the $10,000 mark. In the blink of an eye, we maxed out credit cards and savings accounts just to get to this stage. We also know that these surgeons won't perform without cash in hand, so as Moose fights for his life, he's doing so against the clock. We are not the type of people to ever ask for anything, but we have no other options. So we are asking for your help on Moose's behalf. Please help Moose in his recovery and please share this. We are so thankful in advance. And so is Moose.
