Lucky Pup Oliver's Vet Bills

Donation protected
UPDATE 11/7:
Hi Friends,
I guess I have let you all down by not posting another update about Oliver! My sincere apologies.

He is home, as many of you know from following Oliver on Instagram.

He's been back and forth to the vet a few times for check ups, new medicine (some make him sick), and to make sure he's on the road to healthy.

Sally, is happy to have her boy home. Her lovely friend Colleen, (and another neighbor), who actually put her credit card down when Oliver went into the hospital and paid the bill, has withdrawn the funds you all so generously donated.

Attached are copies of some of the bills -- just so you all can see where your donations are going.

I'll do better with posts. thank you all again. your generosity is unparalleled.

UPDATE 10/26: 
Oliver is home! It's a miracle. He's happy, wagging his tail and on his way to a full recovery. He'll have some scars to show of his battlewounds, but his spirit is unbroken. 

We're so close to the fundraising goal...and that too is beyond humbling. THANK YOU to everyone. 


UPDATE 10/24:
Today (Monday) Oliver celebrated his actual 7 month birthday in the hospital. And his All signs are pointing to him making a full recovery!

And there is no doubt so much of that is due to the overwhelming love and support from all of you. Thank you to every single person who has donated, said a prayer, and put a little extra good energy into the universe in his name. It is all paying off. 

Stay tuned for more posts and updates. 

For those that want to donate directly to the hospital you can do so by calling the VCA in Mission Valley, San Diego.

Thank you!

Friday, October 21: 
Oliver is a 7 month old chocolate lab puppy who lives in San Diego, Ca. He's a sweetheart of a dog with lots of friends on Instagram (@luckypupoliver)!

On Friday night he got out of his house and ran into the street. He was hit on his left side by a car. It was very loud and scary. 

His mom took him to the emergency vet where they are trying to save his life. He is in critical condition; lost a lot of blood, has a big wound, and all sorts of internal damage. He's in surgey as I type this (I am his neighbor) to try and get a better sense of what is wrong and hopefully put him back together. 

The vet bills are already past $6,000. His mom will do anything to save him. If you could donate even one dollar it will make a difference. And if that is too much all we ask is you put a little extra positive and healing thoughts out into the universe in Oliver's name.

Love to you & your animals!
