Vet bills for my girl, Francis.
Donation protected
If you know me, you know I love my dogs.... a lot. These two are the best snugglers, and awesome running companions. I get the most amazing greeting every time I walk in the door, even if I've only been gone an hour. Another fun fact: I'm the worst at asking for help, which is why my stomach's in knots typing this up.
My 2 and 3 year old ridgebacks, Barry and Francis, got out of the back yard Tuesday. With the help of my neighbors, Alan and Nancy, we found Barry that night. Francis had been rounded up a little earlier and taken to the animal shelter. Wednesday morning, when I picked her up, I found out she'd been hit by a car. She could not stand, and if I moved her she'd scream.
Currently she's at the Central Texas Vet Hospital up north. She has a broken hip, heart arrhythmia, pulmonary contusions, and other painful injuries. In this condition, if I were to give her 24/7 care, there's no way I'd be able to keep her comfortable and pain free. Unfortunately, it costs $300 a night for 24 hour care.
I'm asking for help to pay for the $1,700 already spent, a week or so stay at the hospital, a second x-ray, pain meds, etc. Can't lose my girl, and Barry misses her sister. I'm wracked with guilt that the fence was not secure. If there are any funds left over, they will go towards repairing the fence.
Anything is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.
