A fundraiser has been launched to help a Glasgow family with their vet bills, after they adopted a dog from the SSPCA earlier this year.
Tide, a chocolate lab, was diagnosed with Addison’s disease - and now requires steroid injections every four to six weeks. The lifelong condition is manageable, though vet bills are piling up for the family.
Victoria Brough, Margaret’s daughter, spoke to Glasgow Live after launching the fundraiser. She said: “At one point the vet did think her chances of survival were pretty low. “We soon realised something was definitely wrong. She started to go off her food, lethargic, urinating a lot more than usual and drinking lots more water than usual.
“We took her to the local vet at 12pm, they advised if we took her even one hour later she wouldn't of made it. The next few days consisted of her going to the vets during the day and vet hospital at night.“Every time we visit the vets it's three or four hundred pounds. Once they’ve got it under control it should be about £100, but we’ve spent a lot already.
