The GoFundMe is set at €7,000 and is almost halfway its goal.

From the GoFundMe page:

"Hello all. Our 3 years old boy Archie the Golden Retriever has been diagnosed one month ago with severe hip dysplasia for both hips. He needs a hips replacement surgery which is very expensive and insurance wont cover that because he was born with this. At this moment he is on strong pain killers, which he will need take all his life, if we don't do the surgery. So, we will very appreiciate any help towards Archie's surgery. Please help for Archie have a long, healthy, pain free life. Thank you very much everyone."
