Baloo is a 9 year old Keeshond in Grover Beach, CA, who needs $20,000 for Lung Lobectomy & Antifungal to Treat Valley Fever.

Baloo came into my life when he was only 6 weeks old. From that tiny puppy to the amazing dog he is today, we've shared countless memories together. He's my best friend, my comfort, and my family. His unconditional love has been a constant through the years.

Baloo was diagnosed with Valley fever after developing a large fungal mass in his lung that made it difficult for him to breathe. He required emergency surgery to remove the affected lung lobe and is now recovering while taking long-term antifungal medication. He is being treated by the specialists at Cera Alto Pet ER in San Luis Obispo.

Baloo has the sweetest heart. He greets everyone with kindness, loves going for car rides, and always knows how to make me smile. He's more than a pet….he's my family. Seeing him fight so hard through surgery has reminded me just how resilient and loving he truly is.

Baloo's emergency surgery and ongoing treatment have created overwhelming veterinary expenses of more than $20,000. I have done everything possible to save him, but I need help covering the remaining costs so he can continue receiving the care he needs to recover.
