Bear is a 2 year old Cane Corso in Minneapolis , MN, who needs $5,000 for TPLO Surgery.

Bear is a young Cane Corso who lives at home with me and is deeply loved as part of our family. He is loyal, protective, affectionate, and full of personality. After the traumatic loss of our other dog, King, one year ago, Bear became an incredible source of comfort and emotional support for our household. He is normally very active, playful, and always by my side.

Bear was recently evaluated at Hometown Veterinary Hospital after suddenly developing pain and difficulty bearing weight on his hind leg. X-rays and examination raised concern for a an ACL tear, which is common in large breed dogs like Cane Corsos. He is currently on medications, strict rest, and activity restriction while we pursue further evaluation and determine if TPLO surgery will be needed.

Bear is incredibly loyal, loving, and protective of our family. Despite being a large Cane Corso, he is gentle, goofy, affectionate, and always wants to be close to the people he loves. He follows me from room to room, watches over the house, and brings comfort during difficult moments. After the tragic loss of our dog, King, Bear became an emotional support and source of healing for our family.

This has been a sudden and overwhelming medical expense for our family. As a single mom, the possibility of a $5,000+ TPLO surgery, specialist visits, imaging, medications, and rehabilitation is financially devastating. Having Bear healthy again would mean everything to us.
