I'm Maddie and I need your help!

I'm a super sweet dog and absolutely love cuddles, toys & tennis balls. But I need your help! I've got a bad leg, my friends at Bristol A.R.C. say it's a degenerative disease which gets worse over time, so I need surgery! Can you help me raise funds?

Story

My two-legged friends here at Bristol A.R.C. say I have a ruptured cruciate ligament and it is due to something called "Degenerative Joint Disease".

"Our Maddie has ruptured her cruciate which requires surgery and this is where we need your help. Maddie is such a loving, calm, and wonderful dog and will cope well with recovery and lots of TLC. With surgery, joint supplements, and the right exercises Maddie should be able to lead a normal, happy, and healthy life again! "Jodie Hayward Animal Home Manager Bristol A.R.C.

That all sounds very scary but they've said that with surgery, joint supplements, and the right exercises I should be able to lead a normal, happy, and healthy life again, yippee! I have had surgery for the same thing in my other leg before I met my friends here at Bristol A.R.C. so they know my healing powers make me a good candidate for surgery and that my leg is strong enough to support me whilst I recover.

So! I need to raise around £2,000 to help cover the cost of my operation and any additional medical care I might need post-op, and that's where I need your help!

If you can spare anything at all towards my treatment, however large or small, please make a donation by clicking the donate button.

Thank you so much and please keep your fingers and paws crossed for me that I'll get my leg fixed soon.

Lots of love and licks,

Maddie
