Desperately trying to bring our beloved Biggie home after a vicious dog attack lead to her being euthanised
Clevedon, Auckland
Our beautiful Biggie was attacked by a dog on 13th of September . Due to the severity of her injuries and the concern she wouldn’t survive her injuries/ surgeries which in total was estimated at $30,000 we made the heartbreaking decision to put her to sleep.
To be able to bring Biggie home and cremated the vet bill needs to paid by the 22nd of September, and if we are unable to pay after 10 days, finance charges and a 5% monthly interest rate and holding fees will be also added. ($50 per day )
The dog owner has taken no responsibility and is refusing to pay the vet bill. Even as we move forward with reporting the attack it will be a lengthy process which doesn’t help us bring her home.
Her injuries included;
- Suspected urinary tract rupture , Urethral tear, bladder rupture due to location of bite wounds
- Suspected Severe orthopaedic and soft tissue trauma to the pelvic region and right hindlimb, possible Pelvic fracture, right femoral fracture, sacroiliac luxation, severe muscle contusion/crushing
- Suspected Hindlimb paresis/paralysis and tail paralysis, nerve root avulsion, spinal fracture, peripheral nerve trauma from bite wounds.
- Traumatic shock and systemic instability resulting from severe crushing injuries, pain, and metabolic derangements
After the immense pain she suffered and the trauma she went through, we just want to be able to bring our baby home so she’s at peace with her family.
