Help Rosie our 3 legged Staffie
Please help us pay for an operation for our beloved 3 legged Staffie, Rosie
Hawke's Bay
Our beloved 6 and 1/2 year old girl Rosie developed a lump on her leg which I noticed 3 weeks ago. We went to the local vets and they did tests and reffered us to Massey University Vet Hospital, where on Monday we dropped her off for a scan and additional tests.
She was feeling quite sorry for herself and our family was very worried for her.
A Catscan revealed that she had an aggressive form of cancer on her hind leg and it was the size of a fist. They did additional tests to make sure the cancer hadn't spread as 2 of her lymphnodes were very swollen.
Luckily for us and her the cancer hadnt spread, however she would need quite radical surgery to save her life.
This involved an amputation of her back leg and part of her pelvis. This was done on Friday 26 June.
She came thought the surgery well all considered and we went to visit her on Sunday and it was so great to see her up and about and happy.
Unfortunately we are now awaiting a bill of around $4000 on pickup, and as I'm the sole bread winner of a family with 2 young boys, this is going to add a lot of stress and pain to our household.
This is were your generousity comes in!
