THE PITCH

Zack is a nine year old English Spring Spaniel in desperate need of your help in order to keep his sight. His current guardians have been caring for him since he was a pup and although they have health insurance for Zack, they can not afford the costs associated with this surgery. In Zack’s current state the veterinarian says that he will lose his sight. He has moles on each of his eyes which are abrasive to his lenses. These moles have created a daily need for special eye drops and extra tender loving care. The family was told that Zack’s sight is worth $1500.00, in terms of removing Zack’s eye moles, including sedation and overnight recovery. The family and I think his sight is worth much more than that and we’re asking for your help. This operation will save his sight and hopefully lead to a long and healthy life. We are asking for your help to raise $1,500.00 plus an additional $54.40 for the 3.5% credit card processing fee.
