Pet In Need
Sofia

NOTE: For those of you who have followed us for a while you will remember that we normally publish the detailed estimate from the veterinarian's office under the Current Pets in Need tab. WSU is not currently providing detailed estimates due to the supply chain issues and the uncertainty of the costs of the supplies and equipment for the surgery. The cost they quoted the client 4,500 to 5,000 is within the range we have seen for TPLOs we have assisted with at WSU in the past, so we felt we could proceed without this under the current Covid-19 constraints.

Let us introduce you to Sofia. Sofia is a 5-year-old, female, Rhodesian Ridgeback mix. Her family started to notice weakness in her right back leg a while back. After several veterinary visits, and trying braces, testing finally determined that she has bilateral cranial cruciate ligament ruptures. The treatment for this condition is a tibial-plateau-leveling osteotomy (TPLO). Washington State University Veterinary Teaching hospital can surgically correct the right leg now and if the surgery and rehabilitation go well, they will not need to do the second leg. However, that is not a guarantee, and the left leg may need surgery in the future. The family has already expended $2,000 for diagnosis and treatment. The estimate from WSU for one TPLO surgery is $5,000. The family is asking for our assistance with this first surgery so they can have time to save up to cover the second surgery if needed. They can pay $2,500 toward first surgery and are asking for our assistance with the balance of the cost which would be $2,500. Please help us help Sofia live her best life by donating to her surgery. You can donate on our website by debit/credit/PayPal or you can send a check to PO box 532, Pullman, WA 99163. Please but Sofia’s name on the memo line.
