Please help Protecting Preloved Border Collies give Gus a chance of a pain free life. Gus is only a year old and came to us because his owner couldn't give him the life he needs due to a relationship breakdown and having to move to a flat where pets are not allowed. Unfortunately, Gus went missing for 8 weeks in November, after being scared on a walk by a fire engine which caused him to bolt. His owner could not find him and had thought he would not see him again, but he turned up at a friend’s house. He had matted fur, was very thin, overgrown long claws and limping on a hind leg. While in foster we had Gus x-rayed and he was found to have fractures and hip damage and needs a total hip replacement to be able to live an active pain-free life. This operation including all the scans and x-rays and aftercare will cost approximately £6000. We are looking for donations to help us cover the cost of this and would be grateful for any help you can give.
