Story
Honey is 7 years old, 14 days ago we noticed she was struggeling to walk on her back legs. She was wobbely and unable to walk straight. We instinctivly went to pride park vets to seek advice.
on friday 26th - we visited under urgent refferal and met with her neurologist who insisted on an urgent mri.
Monday 29th- Honey underwent an MRI, CT Scan and biopsy. The findings have left us in a heart breaking position.
Honey has something called constrictive myelothapy which inturn is creating cronic instability and hypoplastic facets. - in other words her spine is being squeezed together like a belt and her vertebraes are being compressed against her spinal cord.
the opperation needed is to open her back from a birds eye view and screw and cement her spine, they will pull the vertabraes back to the correct position which will release the presure. If this opperation isnt done asap honey bear will eventually become paralised.
The opperation needed isnt coming cheap. Having already raided the savings of £4000 to pay for the above we are running very low and with more time i would find it again however we have 5 days due to the severity of the diagnosis. We did have insurance (this isnt us being irresponsible owners) unfortunatly they wont pay out.
Im a proud person who would never ever ask but this dog is my world and im not ready to loose her yet. We should have another 7 years at least. if anyone can help i would be forever in your debt. I always try to help on crowd fundings and i just hope its my turn for a little help that would be life changing.

5 years agoI just want to take a moment to thank every single one of you that has donated to honey. I can’t and will never be able to thank you enough, because of the amount needed we have had to beg borrow (not steal) which has delayed honeys treatment - she isn’t doing great but while there is life there is hope and my goodness honey has life (it’s keeping her calm that’s the issue) We have finally managed to get a date to hopefully put this nightmare behind us. 27th August. Please keep us in your thoughts on this date. I’ll keep you posted 🌸💗
