| Raising Money For Surgery My sister's dog has to have knee surgery that costs $3,000. My sister is a law student; therefore, $3,000 is a lot of money for someone who has school loans to pay. Does anyone have any suggestions on what we can do to raise money for her dog's surgery? |

| Have you heard of carecredit? its like a credit card but the interest is close to none and you can pay small amounts every month till its paid off. Thats what I use for my dogs just incase of emergencies. Good luck I hope she feels better |

| Have a series of bake sales at different places around where you live. Let people know what it's for and they will be eager to help! I know it seems simple, but who can resist yummy treats and helping out a dog and family in need!! God Bless |

| Selling items on here seems to be a popular option.

| We will have to try the bake sell. What kind of items sell well on this site? That is an idea. Thanks for the ideas. We are also going to have a garage sale in the spring. |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Here's a site that offers financial assistance to people who's pets are in danger of being put to sleep if the owner cannot afford medical attention - it's worth a try - GOOD LUCK !!! www.imom.org |

| ebay is good too, you can tell your story in the description along with adding the dogs photo Another thing is take a big cake into work and sell by the slice, home intereiors has candle fundraisers and you keep half of what you sell. Just some ideas
