Does anyone know of an organization that helps pet owners who need to travel a great distance with their pet to be seen by a vet?
At this time there is no vet in the U.S. that does a certain heart procedure and people have to travel out of the country to Japan and maybe a few other countries. A disabled vet tech is needing to take her dog there. Friends of mine are raising the money for the surgery. I'm trying to figure out how to get her a free round trip flight. This is new to me. I'm going to contact some airlines, but not too hopefully. I was hoping maybe someone else had some ideas or knew of an organization. I don't think the little dog can wait until University of Florida starts their open heart program.
Here is a newspaper article about someone else who had to travel to Japan with their pet to get the procedure done:
