NZ Search and Rescue Dog needs help with vet bills
Kawarau Falls, Otago
Rudi is an avalanche search and rescue dog. He helps save lives, with his handler/ Dad Blair. 3 weeks ago, Rudi had an accident while he was at the river with his dad. He fell down a riverbank (rocks slippery with didymo) and a sharp stick lodged in his eye. He's currently on anti-inflammatory medications and pain killers, and it's a "wait and see" while our dear Rudi recovers. We hope the outcome will be positive, and time will tell.... in the meantime; Rudi needs help to pay for his vet bills. If kind donations exceed the vet bills, the balance will be donated to Search and Rescue Dogs Avalanche Inc - a registered charity (CC61298).
Rudi is my son's dog and is a super boy and very special avalanche rescue dog.
All funds will be used to pay vet bills for Rudi. Any excess funds raised will be donated to Search & Rescue Dogs Avalanche Inc (NZ registered charity CC61298)

Rudi is now on the mend and bouncing back to be our beautiful doggo - free from pain.
Avalanche rescue dogs are truly magnificent creatures. From their cute wet nose to the tip of their tail, they are dedicated and driven team members as our handlers will tell you. We thank you all very much for your generous gifts and for your love sent to our Rudi Boy. A huge WOOF from Rudi, and many thanks from his human buddies to YOU!! You are AMAZING - just like Rudi!!!
