Merilyn, a 3 year old German Shepherd/Chow Mix (picture attached), was involved in a tragic accident a few months ago with a lawn mower, and needs your help to pay his vet bills!
Initially the costs for surgery to save his leg, and ultimately his life, were very high, and the ongoing care continues with costs every couple of weeks until he regains his health. The damage was extensive: he severed his sciatic nerve & Achilles tendon, and shattered the bone in his foot. They fused the severed nerve and tendon, but he has no use of the foot since the bone was shattered.
We are glad to report that he is responding beautifully to treatment, and although a complete recovery is highly unlikely, the vet insures us that he will be able to get around and be a loving pet for many, many years to come.
However, there is still a balance and more expenses as the next few months unfold. "Mom" and "Dad" would appreciate any help you could give them towards Merilyn’s recovery.

In the time of the year when cold is upon us and the sun draws nigh
You've given the warmth of friendship so this dragon can continue to fly
With heart and compassion you've alway come thru
I count myself blessed to have friends such as you
When I seek miracles I find that they abound
I find them in the very best people in the whole world around
So with heart-felt appreciation I offer my wishes for a Merry Christmas to you
And throughout the year may may God's blessings be bestowed upon you. Moondragon1
