What better way to start the new year off than helping a doggie with a hole in his heart? Teddy the golden cockapoo, and owner Hannah Knowles from Tidworth are raising money to help towards Teddyโs two heart operations.
โTeddy is a with a vibrant personality that lights up our lives,โ Hannah said. โWe recently lost two dogs this year and decided we were ready for a new troublemaker in the house to give her new sister Ke Ke some company. They bonded instantly and havenโt left each other alone since. The vet thought she had a heart murmur until she went for a check-up scan and discovered she had a pulmonic stenosis and Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). In short this means she has a hole in her heart and needs a balloon in her artery, this will require two heart surgeries when she reaches 4 kilos. These operations will cost a total of ยฃ8000 and its money that a normal working family does not have.โ
โWe have hope for teddy and there is a 95% chance she will live a normal doggy life after. She has bonded with her new sister Ke Ke and we canโt imagine their lives without each other. Any donation is appreciated and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.โ
Hannah has set up a GoFundMe page, here, if you can, please donate. Thank you!
