$5️⃣ FRIDAY!
$5 Friday for our boy Benjamin! 👏🏻
As you may remember, Benjamin was in an altercation with another dog. He seemingly only had a small puncture wound, but after going to the vet and doing X-rays we learned that his jaw was BROKEN! 😢
Benjamin had extensive surgery at Veterinary Dental Center one week ago. He had a mandibular jaw fracture on the left side, right behind his first molar. The doctors extracted the tooth so there would be room for his bone to grow. Poor Benjamin has two wires in the area to hold the bones together.
In addition to the “main” fracture, Benjamin had two smaller fractures. One was in the back of the jaw near his joint. The other was a cheek bone fracture. The vet said that these smaller fractures usually heal on their own, but Benjamin will have to restrict movement and has to wear a muzzle for at least four weeks.
His surgery totaled $3,997.28 😱.
Benjamin has to go back in two weeks for a recheck, then repeat a CT scan in eight weeks (which will cost over $1,000).
So far we’ve raised $2,341 - SO AMAZING! 👏🏻
That means we have $3,659 to go to hit our goal. We’d love to have Benjamin’s full procedure, follow up and after care costs covered. ❤️
If 732 people donated $5 we’d hit our goal. It seems like a lot of people… but we have over 6,300 followers!
Please consider donating $5 this Friday to support Benjamin 🙏.
