Title: Hope for Vin

We are reaching out to our wonderful community with heavy hearts but also with hope for our beloved Vin. As many of you know, Vin has been through so much and now he needs our help more than ever.

Vin is severely disabled, only 4 years old, and the first Soi Dog on the Isle of Man. He loves life, and we must be very clear that this treatment may not work. Despite his challenges, Vin has fought so hard to come this far, and we owe it to him to explore every possibility.

Vin has been referred to the amazing vet in the UK who is willing to see him in the New Year for a possible elbow fusion surgery that could significantly improve his quality of life. The estimated cost for this consultation, including blood tests, MRI scans, X-rays, to decide if surgery itself, is at all possible. We do not know the costs. If surgery went ahead it Is not guaranteed, but we believe it is the only chance to extend his life.

We want to stress that people who give must understand that nothing is guaranteed.

If we are unable to use any of the funds for Vin's treatment, we pledge to donate them to animal welfare on the Isle of Man and to the Soi Dog Foundation, without them Vin would not be here today.

We were reluctant to start this campaign, but the outpouring of love and support for Vin has been so overwhelming, and we know many of you care deeply for him. We want to do everything we can to give him the best possible chance at happiness and pain free.

Please consider donating to Vin's page and share his story with your friends and family. Together, we can make a difference for our brave boy.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness and generosity.

With love and gratitude, Andi and Pete & Vin
