Please help with Nyla's operations

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Leanne and I am fundraising for my dog. Nyla is a beautiful 3-year-old American Bulldog, who is super sweet and very playful. Unfortunately, a few weeks ago we noticed that she began to limp really badly, so after taking her to the vet and having some x-rays done we have discovered that she has problems with the cruciate ligaments in both her knees. Currently, the left leg is a lot worse than the right leg. It has deteriorated so badly that Nyla is now unable to use her left leg and is now mainly walking on three legs. The vet says that the cruciate ligament could rupture at any time which will be very painful for her. The right knee is more stable for the time being but it is also deteriorating. After booking an appointment to see a specialist consultant, I have been told that she would need an operation on both knees, the left one would be the main priority, then after she has recovered she will then need the operation on the right knee. The operations are £3,000 per knee and she will need x-rays/ scans afterwards which will be around £300-£500. The total is around £3300 minimum per leg and for both knees to be done the cost is around £6600 minimum with all the extra costs on top like medications, cones, and extra.

I do have insurance, but unfortunately, it only covers up to £1000, and because of the appointments and scans Nyla has already had, there is only around £200 left that we are covered for, which is nowhere near the amount needed for the operations.

It broke my heart when I found this out because I am already financially struggling and I cannot afford the operations. I feel like the world's worst dog mum as I can see she's in pain and she is struggling to walk and the vets have said that it won't be long before she is unable to walk at all. Please if you can help me with the costs in any way I would really appreciate it. Please can you also share this fundraiser so that Nyla has a better chance of getting the operations that she needs. Thank you for any donations and God bless!
