Corgi's Medical Bills

Donation protected

On June 18th our good friend and fellow corgi owner Alex took his pups Corgi and Buster for their usual nightly bathroom break, in the shared backyard of his complex.  What should've ended in sniffing every bush on the way back to snuggles on dad's cozy bed. No one could have guessed what was to happen next.
As Buster was handling his business, from across the yard at full speed another tenant's pitbull slips off leash and charges directly for Buster. This all happens in the blink of an eye, with no time for Alex to react and protect his fur pups. Buster's brother Corgi saw the pitbull heading toward his best friend so he heroically jumps in front of him and takes the vicious attack. The pitbull grabs Corgi by the neck and dangles him in the air. By this time the owner of the pitbull runs to come help while bringing his other pitbull with him on leash. The second pitbull has now grabbed Corgi's leg and started tearing at it while he was still being held by the neck in the jaws of the first pitbull.  This position continued for minutes on end, and no one could get the dogs to break their grip until they finally decided to let go. Once the dogs let go of Corgi, Alex rushed him to the nearest vet hospital.

The following day the owner of the pitbills had assured Alex not to worry about any medical cost. He would take care of any and all cost due to the damage of his dogs.
This was short lived...
Once Alex found out from the vet what the emergency surgery and the rest of Corgi's medical bill come out to ($15,000 ) he informed his neighbor who has not returned his calls or text messages. Which now leaves him to take care of this all on his own. What makes matters worse this tenant is still allowed to live in the complex with his vicious dogs.

Corgi's damages:

-Right hind leg was completely torn all the way through the Adductor muscle.

-Right hip was dislocated badly.

-He also has major bite wounds on the front leg and left hind leg. Puncture hole on the top of his head

-Right side of neck bite wound extending all the way to nose severely torn apart








I personally can't imagine what Alex has gone through, to watch his baby be brutally attacked and be virtually helpless. Thankfully Corgi's surgery went well and his stay at the hospital has come to and end. The nightmare isn't completely over. The debt of $15,000 is left after all this mess. If we could relieve some or all of this stress of debt, it would be so amazing. We are so incredibly grateful for your support and prayers for Corgi.




Thank you
