PHOENIX (3TV/CBS 5) — Our pets are our family, so of course, we do what we can to make sure they’re happy and healthy, even if it means spending a small fortune for life-saving surgery.
Stevie, the golden retriever, spent six days in the intensive care unit with a punctured lung and fractured ribs after being hit by a motorcycle and had to have surgery. The surgery worked, but it was expensive. So Stevie’s fan club worked on a plan to help with those vet bills: a good, old-fashioned lemonade stand.
“I felt really bad, so I wanted to help,” one of the kids said. “I told my mom about the idea, and she thought it was a good idea.”
“Most people just stopped and gave money because it was Stevie,” Rylee said.
Stevie is doing well and getting stronger every day, thanks to her friends.
