Hello my name is Anabelva Cohen I'm a mother of 3 kids and last night my puppy jumped down from my bed. Today I took her to the vet. I couldn't afford to do so ,but I'm a very responsible pet mother and still did so. My bill was more than what I was thinking of. My puppy has 2 broken bones from her front leg. The vet ( Inwood Animal Clinic) Dr. Jennifer Tsung told me that she needs surgery, because of the 2 bones that are broken. I  need your help. Me and my kids are very sad just thinking of loosing her. She is another member of our family

Sorry to hear about your puppy! Here are a few resources you can try to help lessen the load of the vet bill or find a payment plan that is more manageable. I personally use Care Credit for my pets when there have been large vet bills due to specific incidents.

• Scratchpay (https://scratchpay.com/) is an app that provides a payment plan option. Since it is not a credit card, it should not affect your credit score.
• The AVMA Vet Care Charitable Fund: vccfund.org - provides financial assistance through veterinarians that apply on your behalf and are licensed AVMA members.
• Care Credit: carecredit.com – offers people a credit card option to be used for medical treatment.
• Waggle Foundation: www.waggle.org - Ask your veterinarian if they are partners with Waggle. Waggle veterinary partners may be able to access the organization’s crowd funding platform.
