Please help us give our much loved 7 month old Labrador the surgery he needs to give him a better quality of life.
Hawke's Bay
Toby's urgent surgery will allow him to be a puppy and prolong his life from hip dysplasia disease which is causing his knees to dislocate.
We were given the terrible news by our vet that Toby is at a severe stage of hip dysplasia disease at only 7 months old. We are at the stage of having to make an important decision through the recommendations of our vet.
We were given two options, we could give him the much needed surgery to add implants to his patellas to stop his knees from dislocating, this will not only give him the much needed pain relief allowing him to walk comfortably, but it will also improve his quality of life that he deserves.
The other alternative that we have been given, is having him put to sleep. This is not an option that we want to have to consider.
Toby is a much loved and adored member of our family that we want to have around for the years to come and the surgery is the only way we can make this happen.
Please help make this possible for our beautiful Toby.
The funds that we will receive will go towards the Toby's surgery and recovery
In the past 6 months we have not only lost my mother through cancer, but we have also lost one of our two cats, the last thing I want now is to have to make that descion that no one ever wants to make, and that is to put Toby to sleep.
Toby is not only a dog, but he is an important and much loved member of our family though we have not had him very long.
I could not think of loosing another family member after loosing two others in the past 7 months.
Funds will go directly to Toby's surgery and recovery.
