Help Odette Get To Her Forever Home

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Carl. I am fundraising for a lovely dog called Odette. In June 2023, I went to visit family in the Philippines. The Philippines is a developing country and as people struggle to make ends meet, they unfortunately have to make tough decisions regarding their own personal health and their pet's health. Unfortunately, the Philippines does not have an NHS unlike the UK. This results in unintentional neglect, as was the case with Odette.

When I first met Odette she was flea-ridden, visibly skinny and lethargic. Despite her poor condition she would still wag her tail and say hello. As an animal lover and a vet student, I was desperate to help Odette. After speaking with her owners, we decided that I would take her in and look after her. I took her for a general health check up at the vets. It was found that Odette required a whole array of medication such as flea and tick treatment, dewormers, anti-fungal shampoo and antibiotics. A plan was set to nurse her back into health. Her treatments have been successful with now only requiring monthly flea and worm treatment as preventative medication.

As I was only in the Philippines for a few weeks, Odette is currently staying with family there. I send over regular funds to help support with her care.

My goal is to try and bring Odette here to the UK where she will be able to get the love, care, and attention she deserves in a safe and stable environment. To make this dream a reality, I've initiated a fundraising campaign to cover the costs associated with bringing Odette to the UK. This includes transportation fees (£2,250 + additional airport administration fees), and any additional medical expenses (e.g. rabies titre test + additional vaccinations and preventative treatment) that may arise during the transition. We are aiming to get Odette to the UK by the end of the year, should we raise sufficient funds to do so.

Every contribution, no matter how small, will make a significant impact on Odette's journey to a better life. Your support will not only provide her with a chance for a brighter future but also help raise awareness about the struggles faced by animals in underprivileged areas.

If you would like to be a part of Odette's journey and contribute to her cause, please consider making a donation to our fundraising campaign. Any funds in excess of what is required for Odette's journey will be donated to a local RSPCA branch to help other animals in similar situations.

Thank you for taking the time to read Odette's story, and thank you in advance for your support. Together, we can give Odette a second chance at a happy and healthy life.
