A chance for Chilly

Chilly is a 2 yr old Australian Shepherd with a serious heart murmur. She needs to see a cardiologist to find out about possible surgery options or she may only live to be 5 yrs old. A veterinary cardiology consult  costs between $600 and $800.If she is a candidate for surgery it can cost  between  $3500 -$4500. We would love to give Chilly a chance at a long life since she is a gentle, loving girl. When we adopted her we thought that we would give her the best life that she had left. After a few weeks we began to see how unbelievably attached to us she is and how much she loves  us and her life with our  4 month old Aussie puppy  Marley.  She loves walks but she can't have any exercise right now.I can't imagine Marley without  her pal Chilly around to play with and sleep next to. Please help us, please share our post. We need to get this surgery so she can live  the long life she deserves.
