Bud is a 11-month-old Pit Bull in Portland, MI, who needs $2,000 for Advanced Wound Care with Tie-Over Bandage.

We adopted Bud and his brother Roman when they were little 8 week old puppies. He’s just about to be a year old. Bud was named by his “Auntie” Destianna, but we like to call him Fat Boy because he eats like a horse. He’s been part of our family pack for almost a year and we love him so much.

Bud is a hyper and energetic bundle of fun. He spends his day living his best dog life chilling out with Mom and Daddy and his brother Roman. They love to play together and fight over treats and petting from us. He can really jump. He can jump up to catch treats in the air. When Skyy calls him puppy paws he will jump up into his arms for a hug. He barks at everyone walking by to say hi.

Bud is a big happy boy. He is curious about everything and loves digging and exploring. When he greets you, his whole body wags because he is so excited. He was so funny the first time he saw the snow. He’s a smart boy and does a few tricks like sit, lay down, and catch. He mostly likes playing with his brother and getting his belly rubbed.

Bud got off leash one day and came back hopping on three legs and bleeding. We think he must have been hit by a car, but no one came forward to tell us or check on him. We took him to the ER and they put on a bandage that needs to be changed surgically every two days until he has enough skin growth to sew him up. His right back leg is injured and may need surgery to save his leg.

The treatments that are required to make Bud better are expensive and we don’t have the savings to cover it. He’s just a young puppy, and we love him so much and want to see him live a lot more happy and healthy years.
