Story
First and foremost, the main reasons this page is here is because Emma was tragically violently attacked by her *usually docile* Bull dog. The dog had recently been through some hormonal changes (been dressed) which can impact reactions. As to how, its not important.
What is important is this has ended up being a life threatening incident, with long term life changing disabilities and still have no idea if she can keep her right arm.
Shes my best friend in the whole world and i cant do anything for her. This money wont save her arm or bring back to life the dog she loved so much, but Emma will needs months or years to recover and she has a young toddler.
She quit her job to start a dog boarding business of her own and i dont think she'll be able to retain her and her partners self employment now. She doesn't have an income and gave up everything to start this business.
1) this was so out of character for her dog
2) shes left in Intensive care unable to see her son as children cannot visit
3) shes also left grieving the loss of her dog, who understandably had to be put down.
4) but also grieving the loss of her old life and trying to adjust to this new one.
And so so much more.
Emma would give you her last penny if it would make you happy.
Shes quite honestly not only an extraordinary person - Zoologist and expert in animal behavioural sciences (these things saved her life; she knew how to behave so the dog stopped and also didnt attackany of her customers dogs SHE WAS OUT WALKING A GROUP OF THEM WHEN THIS HAPPENED!!)
She's honestly thee most lovely person i have ever met and this is the only thing i can do to help.
I think i also might get into serious trouble for making this because they wont want a fuss but if I need to do SOMETHING thay will ease their burden at this time.
