Urgent Help Needed for Military Family's Beloved Dog

I'm reaching out for some assistance for my 11-month-old dog. I'm currently in the military and about to move soon. As you can imagine that is a financial strain on its own. Now coupled with Apollo falling ill is very stressful for us a family. We suspect he may have heartworms. This has put us in a difficult situation.

Apollo, our 11-month-old dog, is a big cuddle buddy who has a hilarious quirk – he thinks he's a small lap dog! Despite his size, he loves nothing more than curling up on our laps for some quality cuddle time. Apollo is incredibly well-trained and doesn't bark or jump on people. However, don't let his gentle demeanor fool you; he is also very protective over his loved ones.

Apollo, our 11-month-old pup, has the funniest quirks that never fail to make us smile. He’s not interested in playing with toys at all; instead, he’ll just stare at them when we try to play fetch. It’s adorable how he prefers his own unique way of having fun. Another charming habit of his is his love for putting his paw, as if it’s a hand, on my shoulder.

We have not found a vet quite yet we are on the search for one. Because they will not treat without payment. However we are looking at low income options.

This is a sudden major expense, moving has taken pretty all of our emergency funds, the military only pays for so much when you move.

Typically we would have had funds but it is drained.
