Help With Starbuck's Emergency Surgery
Donation protected
My Belgian Malinois Starbuck fell off the ledge of a building and is in need of emergency surgery.
On June 27, I was in Marina Del Ray on the second floor of the Equinox building and was about to start training my own dogs before meeting with a client and her dog.
Starbuck has had an upset stomach as of late and when I saw she was about to relieve herself on the concrete walkway, I lifted her into an elevated grassy area and had her go potty there. What I didn't know was that the other side of that grassy area was the edge of the building and did not have any partition.
When I called Starbuck to come back to me, she tried to go over the side of the planter and fell to the sidewalk below.
Thankfully, at this point it looks like she did not suffer any internal damage, but her leg will not heal without surgery.
I am traveling to Mexico tonight (June 28th) to bring Starbuck to an emergency clinic to be evaluated for surgery and to continue to receive pain management treatment until the surgery happens.
My thanks in advance for any help.
