About

Meet Dior.

Recently, this spirited and adventurous pup severely fractured her left pelvic limb after jumping off the bed. At an ER, a splint could not be placed due to the injury's location, so Dior was sent home with pain medications.

As Dior continued to struggle, her primary veterinarian referred her to the orthopedic surgery service at the University of Illinois Veterinary Teaching Hospital. There, surgeons were able to stabilize her fracture and put Dior on the road to recovery. Dior’s family received financial assistance for this unexpected hospital bill thanks to gifts to the Friend in Need fund by generous donors like you.

Every contribution makes a difference in the lives of pets and their owners. Please donate today and help pets like Dior get back on their paws! 🐾
