Hello there,

I’m Bruno and usually, I’m a very energetic boy who loves to run around and play. Lately, though, I’ve been a bit in the wars and as you can see, I’m not really up to a game of fetch at the moment.

A couple of weeks ago, I was doing my usual bouncy greeting for my carer Sarah, when I suddenly landed funny and hurt my leg. Although I was a brave boy and tried to soldier on, Sarah knows me too well and she saw straight away that something was wrong. The team whisked me off to the vets for all sorts of checks, but at first my bravery even had the vets baffled! I wasn’t showing any signs of being in pain (I’m so strong and tough), but after a while the vet sussed me out too and discovered I’d broken my leg

My Wiccs family didn’t hesitate to get me the operation I needed, and I was soon home and on the mend. I need lots of extra care and attention for a few weeks which I’m loving, and I have to make sure I rest a lot- not an easy feat for a Collie, I can assure you.

I’m glad we dogs don’t have to worry about money, as I’ve heard the humans talking about how vets bills can really stack up- turns out my little accident cost over £1000! A very generous friend of ours has kindly covered half of my bill, but what I’d really like for Christmas is some help for the humans towards the remaining £500. They work very hard to look after me, and I would hate for them to be worried.

If you feel like helping a dog out this Christmas, please donate to my page and help Wiccaweys keep doing a great job of looking after all of us lucky pooches.

Wags and kisses,

Bruno xoxo
