Saving Elsa's Little Leg

Hamilton, Waikato

My beautiful soul pup Elsa is having trouble with her little leggie. Since puppyhood she's had a continuously subluxating patella in her knee and now its happened one too many times it won't align again, her knee has become very unstable and her cruciate ligament is now damaged. She now struggles to weight bear and walk without regular pain meds. She needs surgery to help restabilise her little leg so she can get back to ger adventures, living her best princess life 💛

Thank you and updates   5 March 2026

Hello beautiful people! Elsa and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generosity and support ❤️

Today we had some lengthy discussions with our vet and a decision has been made not to go ahead with surgery. We will however be managing her condition through alternative means. This includes pain relief, supplements, hydrotherapy, physiotherapy and massage. While this plan is still costly, I am more than happy to refund donations that were given towards the surgery since the path has changed and will endeavour to contact you all and arrange refunds once I have received them from Give a Little next month. Feel free to follow Elsa's progress on her insta page @myelsasface as I'll try to post updates on there.

Thanks again for all the support. With gratitude 🙏 💛

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
