Saving Leroy

Sweet 4 month old puppy was shot in the leg. Animal Rescue R Us needs funding to get Leroy the surgery to save his leg. They are running out of time.

Animal Rescue R Us took Leroy from a kill shelter in the south.  He arrived a sweet, 4 month old puppy with a slight limp.  Christina was worried about this, so she took him to the vet's the next day.

Later, Xrays would show that a bullet had pierced Leroy's leg.  It is uncomfortable for Leroy, and at times, very painful when he walks.  We need to fundraise another $2200 before we can take Leroy in for surgery.

We truly appreciate all the help we can get for Leroy from the community. He's in serious pain and we can't do it without you.

The pet hospital estimated cost will be $2500-$3000. We are going to fundraise and do whatever is needed to get this done. We added a Chip In if anyone can donate $1, $5 anything, we truly appreciate it all. Our goal is to get this done within a month so Leroy wont be in pain anymore. Please spread the word.  Thank you. http://animalrescuerus.chipin.com/leroy-leg-surgery
