Please help us with Takoda’s vet bills
Please help us with little Takoda’s vet bills.
Wainuiomata, Lower Hutt
Over the last week our little five month old foal Takoda fell ill with the bacterial infection salmonella. He was given a 50/50 chance of survival, and we wanted to do everything we could to give him the best chance, taking him to Massey University Veterinary Hospital ICU for his care. We were given an estimate total of his care bills between $6,000-$8,000 but this has now exceeded $10,000 with the extensive length of stay and treatment he has received which has greatly improved his chances, and as he showed signs of fighting for his life, we knew that whatever the cost, we would fight with and for him too.

Takoda has turned out to be a real battler. He has had a large number of tests and treatments various bloods, urine etc, 3 plasma transfusion and numerous IV drips. His condition has been improving slowly each day but still has a way to go. He has the most fantastic nature and has only displayed acceptance to all the handling and the invasive treatments and procedures he has had to undergo. We are so proud of him
