Bear is a 5 year old Australian Kelpie in Villa Park, CA, who needs $2,000 for TPLO Surgery.

Bear was adopted in 2020 from a rescue in Northern Colorado, where he loved hiking, camping, and working with his mom. In August 2024, he moved to Southern California. Sadly, in February 2025, he was diagnosed with an ACL tear, making it painful to walk. He now needs TPLO surgery to regain a pain-free, active life. Any support helps him get back to doing what he loves! 🐾💙

Bear was diagnosed with an ACL tear on February 8, 2025, causing him pain and limiting his mobility. To help him walk and play again, he is scheduled for TPLO surgery on February 13, 2025, at Veterinary Surgical Specialists. This procedure will repair his knee and give him the chance to live pain-free. Any support toward his recovery means the world! 🐾💙

Bear is more than just a pet—he’s a dedicated service dog who helps his mom navigate daily life independently. Without him at his best, she loses that crucial support. Despite his important job, he’s also the biggest goofball, full of love, kindness, and tail wags. His sweet, caring nature brightens every day. Please help Bear heal so he can keep doing what he loves! 🐾💙

Bear’s TPLO surgery is expensive, and like many, we’re facing tough times. He needs this procedure to walk, work, and play again—pain-free. Without it, he can’t continue being my service dog. Your support means everything in helping Bear get back on his paws and back to work
