Hi my name is Frankie and I’m raising funds so a disabling mass above kips femur can be removed. This has caused him to collapse with pain and be unable to use his back leg, he has been crying through the night unable to lie down comfortably, sit or stand.

My dog normally loving to snuggle has been hiding under the table or in the garden shaking with pain.

After 8 weeks of misdiagnosis and even end of life advice it was confirmed, after a biopsy by our new vet and a second opinion that it’s operable. I was so relieved I felt I could breath again.

Kip is the most gentle of souls, bringing so much joy.

He was the little being who arrived a week after losing my beloved sister,

It was his antics and absolute sweetness that helped me cope. That first night he slept against my heart, he has stayed at my heart ever since.

Kip is my companion and my support, coming with to several hospital appointments , delighting patients and staff, uplifting us all, with his quirky hooting and tap dancing feet. He is not just a whippet but a kippet.

His Joie de vivre has been captured and posted on the Lads Bible where you can see him leaping in true kip style over a fence

Logic says a dog needs to be trained, to be taught how to behave but really it’s kip who’s taught me, taught me what love is.

Kip can be made better, free of this tumour- like mass over his femur, which is causing such intense pain. He can be happy again and spread his joy

It means the word to have him well again. Any help will get us closer to this operation and his recovery.

Each day of thus fundraiser I will share a pic of kip

Tje operation date is 1st August - his birthday - let’s make it a happy one
