I had Rowdy at the groomers today for a pre hunt trim. Had all his 'feathers' trimmed off because it's a PITA to pull burrs out of his fur. He looks totally different, and while I don't like it...I do.

Anyway, the groomer told me about her SIL's dog that suffered from bloat, and a flipped stomach. They've started a GoFundMe, and as a dog lover, I couldn't resist. They're out 11K out of pocket to save a loved family member.

The fund raiser has stalled at $4095. Hopefully people start sharing it so it gets more exposure.

I just looked at the GoFundMe link and no further updates since the pup got home and appeared to be responding well.  Have you heard anything further?  Hopefully no news/good news thing.

No...haven't heard. I did check the link about a week ago and noticed that the fundraiser had stalled well short of the goal.
