Dyson's second chance surgery - TPLO

$200 of $7,500 goal
Given by 8 generous donors in 8 weeks

BARK Buddy Dyson has had such a terrible start to 2017. Please help get him back on top to carry out his very important work.

Nationwide

2017 has started terribly for BARK Buddy Dyson. On his first Dogwise Kiwi Kids visit of the year (5/1/17) he tore his right rear cruciate ligament. Two weeks later he had his first surgery (extrascapular repair). He suffered some post-surgery complications which landed him back in after hours care and then underwent intense rehab therapy. Very sadly his first surgery has failed. Rehab has had no impact with the failed implant and now he has to go for full TPLO surgery. We now need to raise enough funds to cover his second surgery, second run of rehab services and a ramp for him to access the vehicle more safely in the future.

Dyson has dedicated the last 6+ years to helping children in need. He is not just a pet dog, he is a very dedicated working dog and he never asks for anything. But we are asking for him... please help us get Dyson back on all paws. He is needed and has a lot more good work to do.
