Day 1503 we have just hit our target!! 🎯

How amazing is that?! In less than 2 days, 171 people have donated to allow us to afford Khaleesi’s operation.

I cannot begin to tell you how it feels to be on the receiving end of this…. There is shame that we had to ask in the first place and we are just overwhelmed by the kindness of everyone. People apologising for not donating or for saying they wish they could have given more….. hey we wouldn’t have been able to afford any of it so we completely understand.

This is a huge ask and one that we have only undertaken because the surgeon thinks it will greatly improve her quality of life.

I’ll share Craig’s FB post from today as I am too tired to type it all out again.

I sat out in the garden with them all this morning and Craig got a great shot.

Khaleesi sat enjoying the sunshine. I tied her to the bench so she couldn’t run and play with the others!

She is currently in Broadleys Veterinary Hospital in Stirling. She was put under anaesthetic this morning so the surgeon could manipulate her and determine the surgery required, and he has established that she needs the more complicated surgery.

Her operation will take place tomorrow and we will be able to go and collect her on Saturday.

The house feels very strange without her. Despite my protestations at having SO MANY dogs…. It feels really strange without her here. She’s become a part of the family in such a short time.

She should be able to come off pain medication and that is amazing. She currently gets doggy Tramadol and Metacalm on a daily basis. Coming off meds will do her the world of good.

She will have a much better quality of life.

I did make some Planthood dinner tonight.

And here’s what they actually turned out like!

They were really lovely, if a weeeee bit oniony. (That’s a great word!)

Gayle is picking me up shortly and we’re heading out to Largs for a couple of hours. The Scottish Dog Behaviourist is back at work. We’re both trying to forget what’s going on just now.

Apart from being so eternally grateful to everyone. People really pull around when things get tough. As Craig said all the donations have helped save Khaleesi’s life.

A very humbling time for us.

Stay safe everyone ♥️♥️♥️
