Pup Falls 50 Feet At Olympic Sculpture Park, Needs $15K For Bills

SEATTLE, WA - Hudson, a curious 15-month-old Australian cattle dog, experienced a terrible accident at the Olympic Sculpture Park in Seattle recently. She jumped up on a ledge not realizing there was a 50-foot slope on the other side.

Hudson tumbled down the slope and onto the train tracks below, breaking three legs. Now, her owner needs to raise $15,000 for vet bills to avoid having Hudson's legs amputated, according to a GoFundMe fundraiser.

"The current estimated medical cost is $15,000. Hudson really needs your help urgently, as these surgeries are most effective when performed as quickly as possible," the fundraiser page says. Luckily, close to $12,000 had already been raised as of Oct. 30.

Hudson was rescued by her owner from an abusive home in California. She and her owner, Nate, only recently moved to Seattle.

In exchange for donations to Hudson's surgery fund, her owners will give back to donors.

• Donors who give any amount will get a weekly email update on Hudson's recovery
• Anyone who gives $100 or more will get weekly updates and a Christmas card from Hudson
• Donors who give $250 or more will get updates, a Christmas card, and a pair of socks with Hudson's face
