Prayers for Falkor

A family friend had an incident a few days ago, she was out with her 2 kids walking their 18 month old Wire Haired Pointing Griffon Falkor, when they were attacked by a couple of "unsupervised" pit bulls. She and the kids are fine, as Falkor got between them and took the brunt of it, including a collapsed lung, broken ribs and multiple open wounds.

At this point it looks like he'll be ok, but they are stuck with something like $3500 in vet bills. She is a medical student raising two kids with little to no help from the father or from her parents (she actually lived with my parents for a couple of years during high school).

Please, say a few prayers for her, the kids and poor Falkor

Could you post the veterinarian info in case some people my want to donate to the cause.

They have a gofundme, but I thought forum rules said no fundraising for this kind of thing, so I didn't mention it.

The offending dogs had no tags or chip, and were taken to animal control thankfully

*Note* I thought the gofund me link was questionable with forum rules, and with the vet links up, I removed it*

Poor Falkor......good dog for protecting his family. Hope he heals quickly. Do all funds raised at gofundme go to the vet bills? I personally would like the name of the vet if that is possible...........Thank you!

That's awful. Praying for a speedy recovery.

I do believe we have changed the rules and that fundraising for this sort of this is A-OK.
