Teddy is a 5 year old Mix-Breed in Lincoln, NE, who needs $2,000 for Patella Luxation Repair on Both Back Legs.

Hello!

My name is Meghan Meyer, and my two kids and I have a morkie named Ted. He’s 5 years old. He’s the joy of our lives! He’s social, he loves all peoples he twirls and smiles meeting new people. He loves his vet and is just the sweetest dog. He lives with myself, I am a disabled 44 yr old mom of two teens, one of which is Autistic. We live on a very fixed income and are desperate to help Ted!

Recently, he’s been in a lot of pain walking and not getting up and down his steps etc. I took him to his vet Dr. Ehlers at Parkview Animal Hospital in Lincoln, Ne and his legs didn’t grow right- the curvature on his thigh bone and calf bone are deformed so his knees are slipping outta socket on both back legs. Dr says both are real bad, he needs surgery on both. He’s in so much pain.

Ted has a best friend, Kitty the cat! He loves a pink flamingo toy, he eats all kinds of food if he can. He prefers whip cream which is a rare treat. hopefully. I don’t qualify for Care Credit, or the other new kind they take there, and I’m not qualifying for Scratch pay at all right now either. I have no family support. Animal Control paid for his vet visit to find out his back legs

We live on $2400.00 a month, for myself and two teens, one of which is autistic. My bills are currently more than what I bring in. Life is very hard we are definitely feeling it this year. My caregiver that the state pays for goes to food banks for us.
