Hi Everyone,

My mum and I are reaching out to ask for some help for our beautiful pup, Willow.

She was in an unfortunate accident over the weekend where she was struck in the face by a tennis ball that was being hit using golf clubs. The impact has caused serious dental damage and a hole in her cheek.

Willow is currently in the hospital needing surgery to remove three damaged teeth. The total cost of the emergency vet, consultation and treatment will exceed $4000 — a huge and unexpected expense that we are struggling to cover on our own.

When she was first examined at the vet this morning, we were told she needed the shattered tooth extracted, with an estimated surgery cost of $1,580 plus consultation fees.

After further examination and X-rays at the hospital, the vet found that the damage was more extensive than originally thought. Willow now needs a total of three teeth removed. The new, updated cost for this surgery is around $3,500.

We are doing everything we can but are in need of some extra help to get our baby the urgent care she desperately needs.

Willow means the world to us; she is so loved, and it breaks our hearts to see her in pain. If you know Willow, you know that she is the sweetest, happiest soul but can be very anxious around new people/animals. If you’re able to donate anything at all, no matter how small, we would be extremely appreciative. And if you can’t donate, sharing this page would also help immensely.

Thank you for reading and showing kindness and support.

Chelsea and Trish.
