Raising funds for Poto's vet bill for a new start.

Bay of Plenty

I am a dog groomer in Rotorua and I am trying to raise funds for a new Client. Meet Poto he is a 9-month-old, male Shih Tzu cross. His new owners where given him by another family who could not look after him anymore. Poto has not been socialized much and this has made him an extremely frightened dog to the grooming environment, but he is a sweet dog you can hold him but any loud noises are to much for him. With the owner’s permission we would like to raise funds to get the following done under sedation. De sex, full groom, nail’s clipped and health check. We received a quote from their vet that it would cost around $300.00.

As the new owners have already paid for microchip and vaccinations this past week they are unable to afford this now, but he really needs a good groom and de-sexing asap as he is a great dog and this will help with his temperament and he is young enough for further training. I also will be working with them to de sensor him to the grooming environment in the future and they are more than willing to do this.

We would appreciate anything you can give because a little can go a long way for a little dog.

I am Poto new dog groomer but he needs this work done before we can get him back in to work on regular grooming. A new dog is expensive and this older couple really love this dog and need a bit of financial support to start the process.

Use of funds
