Gunner's hospital bills

My coworker Cindy's Golden Retriever, Gunner, has been at the emergency vet for several days now and had surgery last night, 10/29, for a bowel obstruction after swallowing a piece of a toy and becoming deathly ill. Her vet bill is already $11,000 and he's still there though the surgery was a success and he might come home tomorrow. I'm reaching out to my animal loving friends (or anyone) for help as Gunner is her baby and despite the unexpected financial strain, she is doing everything she can for him. We would like to help lift the financial burden so she can focus on Gunner and his health. Cindy doesn't know about the GoFundMe. Thank you ♥️
