Iʼve raised £3,302 to Get Benji the specialist surgery he needs

Story
Hi all, as some of you already know, Benji is my blue roan cocker spaniel dog, He's 3 years old (born on 4th nov 2014nd is a very special boy!
Benji has been a bit unwell recently, and last night unfortunately had to go to the out of hours vet. He was on a drip all night, and had exray's and a ultrasound done. This morning at 9am they rang saying he needed a operation and they had to do it then as they thought something was stuck in his intestines. Unfortunately it turned out that he has a Pancreatic Tumour and they are unable to do anything for him. They asked if we wanted to have him put to sleep.
The only option we have now, is to have him referred to a speicalist veternary surgery that will then do a major op on him costing thousands of pounds. I only get a small amount of money (£55.20 a week) which is not going to cover this amount and 50% needs to be paid at the first consultation and the rest on collection of him.
I have made this page at peoples request
in the hope of raising enough money to get this operation done for him as soon as possible. Benji means the world to me and has been there for me through some very bad times, without him I don't know how I'd survive.
Please help me to save the dog that saved me.

7 years agoHi all! Thankyou to everyone for your support. Benji has his operation and is now doing very well. He needs to go back to the vets next month for ultrasounds. He's fully insured now so hopefully we won't have anymore issues!

7 years agoBenji is doing well. He had a vets appointment earlier this week and now we have results from his blood tests and biopsies etc. He is booked in for his op on Monday! Benji's op is still going to cost, so I will still be fundraising but any money left over after treatment will go to charity! Please keep sharing and donating and help save my little boy.
