G'day, 

I'm Kayla and the cutie in the photo is Mr Ruddicah Mason (Rudy) and he is a 2 and a half year old Malshi. 

He has a brother (Gizmo 3) and sister (Moo Moo 11) and some Feline Housemates. 
 
When Mr Rudy was 6 months old I started saying I thought there was something wrong with his leg. No one listened, until one day a couple of months ago, he refused to get out of bed. When I finally got him to stand, his left knee was pointing the wrong way. 
 
I put it back in place and we got him checked out. He was diagnosed with luxating patella in the left knee. 
 
Since then we've been treating him with a daily dose of metacam, taking him walking in the pool, and working on encouraging him to rest. 
 
Unfortunately, this hasn't worked and his condition has progressed. He is going to need surgery to fix this problem and let him go back to the high energy, fun loving boy he always was. 
 
I am medically complex and my husband is my full time carer. We have been quoted $4.5k-$5.5k for the surgery. We have already been putting money aside each week, but we cannot afford such a high amount. We are going to get him on Healthy Pets Plus as well to make things cheaper. 
 
I know times are tough and Christmas is just around the corner, but we would absolutely love if you could spare a few dollars or at least share our Go Fund Me with others. 
 
You can follow Rudy's journey via his Instagram @three_little_malshis 
 
Thank you so much for all your love and support. 
 
I have also included a photo of the quote we've been given.
