Weʼve raised £3,145 to To Help pay for the Cruciate Ligament Surgery needed by Jack, our Rescue Dog
- Funded on Thursday, 13th April 2023

Story
We found out yesterday 6th March, that our rescue dog Jack, aged 10 in June, needs an operation for a fully broken cruciate ligament in his left leg, following a fall in the garden last week. . We have had Jack for 7 years and he has done extremely well after spending the first 3 years of his life in a cage which did damage his health. .We have already spent out £380 on initial exploration and tablets and yesterday £550 on x-rays and further vet consultation. The operation he needs plus further vet consultation, x-rays and then hydrotherapy is expected to come to roughly £3000.
Jack has no insurance because of his particular start in life and the amount of unknowns he came with and that's been fine - until now. It is a fully broken Cruciate ligament and so an operation is the only option for his quality of life.
Embarrassing as it is to ask for help - I am reaching out to see if you can feel it possible to help with the costs for this operation and make a contribution to the cost - no matter how small it is. My heartfelt thanks if you can make a donation. We are just awaiting the operation date which will be carried out by a specialist in Bristol and all updates will be communicated to any doners.
We lost an old dog of 15 who was put to sleep 3 weeks ago and our other rescue dog has cancer and is under treatment as well so this has come both as an Unexpected health issue and an unexpected cost at a time when our vet costs have already been high and are being paid in full.

1 year agoJack is home post operation - a bit bombed out but awake. He did well but apparently sounded like a dinosaur when he woke up post op & realised he was so hungry. Now to try and keep him at complete rest for a minimum of 8 weeks: no stairs / no sofa/ no off lead wee breaks. He now has vet check ups in 2-3 days, 10 days, & then a month ongoing plus then x rays etc to check the bone has healed. He is being very brave and has a range of new tabs and antibiotics to take from tomorrow. COST: (as expected) £3031.00. My heartfelt thanks to you all.
