Bruno is a 9-year-old Golden Retriever Lab Mix in Richmond, TX, who needs $2,000 for Soft Tissue Sarcoma Tumor Removal Surgery.

Bruno was pulled from a high kill shelter minutes before his time was up. He is the best most loyal boy in the world. Bruno was pulled from a high kill shelter minutes before his "time was up". Because of Bruno's story we have became a rescue family. We have rescued, donated, pulled, transported and fostered so many animals because of how amazing of a dog Bruno is.

Bruno is our world. We have a house full of pups and a revolving door of fosters who are all loved and spoiled but there is something so special about Bruno. My son refers to him as brother Bruno and we argue over whos best friend he is. Bruno is the leader of our pack and is in runs the house. He loves other dogs and to run free with them as long as they don't take his tennis balls!

Due to COVID I took a pay cut and I am the sole provider for our family. We want more than anything for Bruno to get better. However we spent close to $18k and we have exhausted all finances that we have. Bruno is our family and we owe it him to try everything to save him.

Bruno diagnosed with grade 2 soft tissue sarcoma in November of 2020. We had surgery to remove the tumor but it grew back January 2021. We removed the tumor again and we began 20 rounds of aggressive radiation. Unfortunately in April 2021 we notices a possible regrowth and on 5/5/2021 a biopsy confirmed that it is a regrowth of STS. Bruno is being treated at Gulf Coast Vet Specialist.

Bruno loves playing fetch with tennis balls more than anything. No matter how tired he is he is always up for a good game of fetch. Every year for Christmas Bruno gets a bucket full of tennis balls and its the best day of the year when we throw them all at him. Bruno begs for my attention, he always has. He has gone as far as to hide the remote to even hiding my keys so I couldn't leave.
