Help our brave Molly keep on fighting

Canterbury

On Sunday, a simple farm walk with Kim's six border collies turned into a nightmare. Molly (10) was found injured under a tree. A stick - about 20 cm long - has pierced her leg, broken a rib, and entered her chest cavity. She's had surgery and is now stable, but still fighting in the care of our amazing vets.

Molly is no stranger to hardship. Four years ago, a small wound runed into a life-threatening flesh-eating infection. She endured three skin grafts and a year of healing - and came through it with the same quiet strength she's showing now. She's not just a dog to Kim - she is the heart of their home, part of a big, much-loved crew of dogs, cats and farm birds.

The vet bills are quickly mounting, and while Kim would do anything for her, it's becoming overwhelming, and there is not much money left.

If you're able to donate or share her story, it would mean the world to Kim and to Molly.

Thank you for helping Molly to keep on fighting

Michelle Nicholson-Richards' involvement (page creator)

Kim is my best friend, we have been friends for over 40 years. She is a care-giver, and has a huge heart, taking in stray animals (she has two rescue cats), and she would give the shirt off her back to help anyone.

Molly is healed  12 May 2026

Posted by: Kim Peet

As we close this chapter, we wanted to share one final update on Molly. ❤️

Molly is now healed — both physically and mentally — and we truly could not have made it through this journey without the incredible kindness, support, and generosity from so many people.

To every person who donated, shared our page, sent messages, checked in, or simply offered kind words… thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your support carried us through some very difficult days and reminded us just how much compassion there is in the world.

Watching Molly happy, safe, and back to herself again is the greatest gift we could ask for.

This will be our final update, but the gratitude we feel will stay with us forever.

With love and endless thanks,

Kim & Molly 🐾

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.
