Bubba is a 10-year-old Saint Bernard in Hatfield, PA, who needs $131 for antibiotic treatment for an ear infection.

Ten years ago, I rescued Bubba as a puppy from an abusive household in a neighboring county. Men in that household were putting out cigarettes on his back when their football team lost games. Not knowing whether Bubba could be rehabilitated, I adopted and began training him as well as getting treatment for a seizure disorder that he had developed. I love large dogs and was not intimidated by his size, even when he grew to 235 pounds. Since I live alone, Bubba and I are best friends and we are always together except when I am working, We used to take car trips until he began having difficulty getting in and out of vehicles.
