My very precious baby was bor woth bad hips which i didnt know til later diagnosed with degenerate joint disease at the age of 1. He also has bad kidneys been on ipakitine over a yr, he has blood tests every 6months his last blood work last month was fantastic so his kidneys are under control. He has been on rimifin for 3yrs. I was told to think of euthanisation as insurance wouldnt cover as birth condition and costs would be high. Well in the last 3yrs i have worked 72hrs every week to pay for my angel working nights so i could look after him through the day.I pay £600 every month for 3yrs for his therapys, meds and supplements. Hes been going hydrotherapy twice a week for 3yrs, massage once a week, meds, suppliments, special big barker otho beds for giant breeds from america shipped to me in uk, even a disability car with a proper built in ramp. I will do absolutely anything for my boy. He just had xrays last week as he has been limping more than usual costing £900. Sadly both knees need operating on they are in bad shape. He will need TPLO surgery in jan for first knee then 2-3months after his other knee plus extra xrays and meds and naturally i will take time off work to help my angel. Please donate anything you can even £1 to help my 4yr old yogi bear.he is my soulmate and i cant cope without him in my life. Thank you for reading and any help/support.

the cost is £2200 per knee then £400 after each knee surgery for post xrays.
