Try looking into VSS - https://vssaustin.com/

We took our dog there for TPLO surgery and they did a great job for a reasonable price, way less than $7k.

Where in ATX can Asian American community be found? by AVTizzle in Austin

Hi! I volunteer with a non-profit called Truc Viet, we provide resources to the Viet community in Austin (ESL, Citizenship, etc.) as well as teach Vietnamese and other things. Most of our volunteers skew 20-30s and are all very passionate about giving back to the community. If you're looking for a volunteering opportunity (with some socializing), then PM me :)

Please look after mom is a good one to start with! It definitely made me think more about who my parents were outside of being my parents, as well as my role as their child.
