Danni came into Foal Farm to be re homed by her previous owners as due to personal circumstances they could no longer care for her. Following a thorough examination by our vet, Mark Nelson BVMS MRCVS of Nelson Veterinary Surgery, we found out she had Elbow Dysplasia which is a genetic disease causing abnormalities of the elbow joints.
Because of the severity of her condition, Danni needed an operation an expensive operation (approx £2,000) to allow her to recover and lead a normal life. Danni is only 2 years old and without this operation she will not have been able to live a full life and will have been in a lot of pain.
Danni was referred to Noel Fitzpatrick Duniv MVB CertVR CertSAO MRCVS of Fitzpatrick Referrals.
Danni has now undergone the operation she needed. A huge thank you to Noel Fitzpatrick who has kept the costs as low as possible as we are a charity.
Foal Farm is a charity organisation and receives no Government funding. We rely entirely on donations from the public and wthout our generous supporters we would not be able to care for Danni, or any other animal in need.
You can help by donating to the ‘Danni Appeal’ fund* where funding will go towards Dannis’ operation and subsequent treatment to help Danni recover from this condition.
All enquiries in relation to donating to the ‘Danni Appeal’ should be addressed to the fundraising team at fundraising@foalfarm.org.uk
*any surplus funds raised will be used to fund other veterinary treatments
