Help save Albert the french bulldog

Help save our little french bulldog Albert, he was rushed to the vets Friday 3rd July after numerous tests we had to take a 2.5hour journey to a specialist vets in wellington where he had a CT scan to find he has a Lung Lobe Torsion to the left lung and will need life saving surgery to save him.

Albert is our deaf French bulldog who we rescued from Spain through the French Bulldog Rescue GB, he was in a pound to be put to sleep and he took the long journey from Spain to Cornwall, he settled down at his forever home with myself and partner Kat.

The money will be spent on the life saving surgery that he is currently undergoing, he had a various scans at Hayle Vets this morning which we have paid for already and CT at CAVE in wellington to confirm that he needed life saving surgery. The surgery is estimated at £3,500 from CAVE Veterinary Referrals in Wellington.

He is currently undergoing the operation and will have a 4 week recovery.

If we reach over our target on GoFundMe we will be donating the rest of the money between NAWT (National Animal Welfare Trust) and the French Bulldog Rescue GB who are both UK Charities and helping with Albert.
