Story
This little boy, who we have named Roland, came into our Practice with both front legs broken. The owner wanted him put to sleep. He was signed over to our Head Nurse who, with the rest of the team, wanted to give him a chance of having his legs repaired. He is only 5 months old. It is a complicated operation and needs a specialist - we have found a lovely vet 150 miles away who will do this much needed op at a very much reduced price (usually £4,000 for an op of this kind)

8 years agoThank you so very much to everyone who supported Roland and his operation, ongoing care etc - you have all made it possible and should feel very proud, that hopefully, this little boy will soon be well enough to run and play like a puppy should. You are all awesome. xxx

8 years agoRoland is continuing to do well . He has his bandages changed every 2-3 days under sedation. On Friday, there was a little bit of infection, so keeping everything crossed that the antibiotics will stop it in its tracks. He is enjoying being a cheeky puppy :) Thank you all xxx

I have worked within the Veterinary profession for about 20 years, and my heart is with all fur kids, as is the rest of our team. We all care and all want to help but cannot do it alone - huge thank you from all of us, especially Roland
