My dogs are my world. Today, TWO of my neighbors dogs attacked Tiko when my mom went to let our dogs out. As always, she checked to see if their dogs were outside, she didn’t see them, and she let our dogs out. Well, the neighbors 4 dogs WERE in fact just tucked behind the garage, outside in the yard. The neighbors have always told us the dogs are just “too excited”, and that’s why we need to keep them separate from ours. No, the dogs are aggressive. Tiko is left with large wounds on his back (one of which needs staples), bites on his legs, sprained/strained (sorry, not a vet lol) legs, AND as a high fever. At first, my neighbors agreed to cover the vet bill, as they should, because their dogs brutally attacked mine. Once they realized it was going to be $1000, everything changed. I can’t afford this and I have no choice but to pay for it. My credit still isn’t good enough for care credit, and honestly, I didn’t even think about it. Today has been so emotional and stressful, I went right on ahead and just transferred ALL of my money out of savings to pay for the bill. To make things even better, my hours were recently cut at work. I have no idea how I’m going to pay the rest of my bills this month, and as if the expenses weren’t already bad enough, Tiko will need a follow up appointment with our normal vet next week. I’m setting my goal at $1600 to cover today’s emergency visit, his medications, and his vet visit next week that I’ll need to take a day off work for. If you consider donating, or even if you just read this, THANK YOU. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
