I've raised £1000 to help pay escalating veterinary bill for Scooby.

We had to rush Scooby, whom we rescued from the Dogs Trust 6 years ago, to Parkvets in Sidcup on thursday 24th May at 4am as he was trying to vomit and could not. In front of my eyes he developed bloat and this is such a serious condition we had only an hour to act before he woul have died..
Major surgery for Gastric Torsion/bloat followed and after a few days recovering in hospital he had to have another major operation due to peritinitis and necrosis that developed due to the Gastric Torsion. Again it was touch and go. Thankfully he survived but remains in critical condition in hospital and major drugs are being administered inteaveniously to aid his recovery.
Partvets are simply superb in what they do. They have staff on duty 24 hours a day and their hospital is in house so they do all the surgery. Without their speedy and skillful work by dedicated staff who are passionate in what they do and we would have lost Scooby.
Being sensible dog owners we are insured to the sum of £4000 but the bill so far is £5289.77 Each day is costing £400 due to the expensive drugs having to be used to help him recover and ensure no further surgery is required.
We are not normally people that would ask for help, we‘d rather give than take, but being on a limited works pension and my wife Carol‘s small amount of disabilty support from the state. We have very little savings to fund the every increasing costs.
We know there are more deserving charity cases around but every penny donated will be used to pay the vets bill. We are not reckless and waste money, we can’t afford too be so this is a genuine appeal for a little support.
We want to get Scooby home where he belongs. Ever since we rescued him from the Dogs Trust 6 years ago he has been our lifeline in as much as he helps my wife with her mental health issues and without him we are totally lost.
Thank you for reading this, we appriciate your help.
