Anyone flying back from the UK soon? - Help for Alfie !

[bigbadbob]

One of our dogs was recently bitten by a snake.
Thankfully his life was saved but the venom has left ligament/tendon damage to his hock so that he is unable to walk with his heel down.
We have had a splint made for him by an animal physiotherapist in the UK to try and help him by giving support to his leg. This has been made out of neoprene with plastic supports. It will be small and lightweight, similar to a persons finger dressing.
We are asking if we could have this posted to someone in the UK who could then bring it out here for us.
Friends who are travelling back around the 25th/26th August have offered but we would like if possible to get it here for Alfie sooner.
Thank you.

Hello ljarvo.
Could you please check your PM and email to see if I got through as I am not very good at all this technology!
Thank you,

Thank you so much.
I am just waiting to hear from the physio in the UK to confirm how long postage will take in the UK to where ever.
There is someone flying back on Saturday and if it can be delivered before then all will be good.
Will let you know.
Thank you, BBB's other half.

BBB and I are so pleased and grateful to you all for wanting to help our Alfie!
We are now sorted and hopefully by this Sunday we will be trying to put the splint on him. Should be fun !
Big thank you to Altay and Karen of Vetpoint in Catalkoy who literally saved Alfie's life but also since has helped us so much.
Altay came up to our home and took videos of Alfie and then sent them to our old Vet in the UK, Paul Dowie of Companion Vets in Newark and he then referred us to Mel of Pheonix Vetinary Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation.
She studied the videos and agreed with Paul that a special splint could improve things and help Alfie with movement.
Altay and Karen took the measurements under Mel's instruction in the UK and she has now completed it today.
All this for a very special Cyprus Street dog called Alfie.
Thank you Kibkom for being here to source a kind and caring person who is going to bring the splint from the UK.
Cheers everyone !
