This is definitely the most awkward thing I’ve ever done. Even more so with everything else happening atm in the country.

We have absolutely no trouble supporting and asking for help for others - when the shoes on the other foot, it’s so different.

Laddie, the legendary 5 year old Border Collie is quite unwell with presumably grass seed/s in his chest. And the only way to get him healthy and home is surgery. Which for us currently is out of reach on our own.

I’ve sat with this for a while now. This is how much Laddie means to us all - for those who know us, animals are our life and family. And we are currently all quite heartbroken not having him home.

Laddie is a great worker but most importantly, his personality and nature is something that’s absolutely priceless.

We would truly appreciate any help that you can spare, if you feel called to help.
