Freak medical emergencies happen, even to pups like Mulder, who has one of the best and most attentive dog moms ever. On August 13, Mulder had to undergo emergency surgery to remove an obstruction in his intestines. The surgery went smoothly, and he's doing well post-op, but it was a harrowing day for him and Emily, who rushed him to the emergency vet after he swallowed a couple of socks.

Many of us in Emily's community are pet parents ourselves, and we know that as much as we might try to prepare for emergencies like this, the reality is that we don't all have thousands tucked away to cover exorbitant vet bills. To help ease the financial burden, we're raising $4000 to help cover the cost of surgery, meds, and Mulder's three-night stay at the vet. Please contribute what you can because this could happen to any of us! Emily has always been quick to reach out to support her friends, and we'd like to show that we have her back too. By helping to take care of each other, we can ensure that everyone (human and fur baby) in our community can stay healthy and events like this don't have to become huge financial setbacks. Thank you!
