Bots Grillo is an 8-year-old French Bulldog in Bronx , NY, who needs $1,750 for an MRI and surgery.

I bought bots eight years ago during the hardest time of my life my husband and I had a horrible divorce and I was physically abused. This dog is not only my child but a vibrant loving amazing lifelong companion and my baby just needs this surgery he still has a long way to go in life. The doctors told me he has an 80% chance of the surgery working he’s not ready to leave me yet.

Bots loves to take long walks and look at birds and chase them, he loves couch time with mommy and gets along very well with other dogs. Everyone stops me in the street and asked me his breed and he always and I mean always gets pet by strangers because they find him so lovable. Not only is he a part of my family he is my child he is my household everything he’s an emotional support.

I was in an abusive marriage where I was hospitalized due to domestic violence after receiving a legal divorce I bought Bots my divorce was ugly and was I was in court for five years with my ex-husband. He used my Social Security card to take our credit cards and purchase things.

Bots developed a lesion on the back of his neck which is causing temporary paralysis and an MRI is needed to decide whether it is a disk that can be removed or if it’s spinal which then he would have no quality-of-life. speaking with the doctors of Guardian hospital in Brewster they believed that with an MRI it can tell that it is most definitely a disk and he will have an 80% chance and that’s 🙏

Bots has this connection with me that is very rare between pet and owner he speaks to me through his eyes he has been my emotional support dog . During the most horrible times of my life he brought light. He likes to howl when the church bells ring and he loves to play with babies and toddlers. My dog is presently in critical condition but Bot’s is telling me he still has fight in him to live.
