About this campaign

One day I drove into a pizza shop parking lot after a storm and saw him standing in front of my car, barking like he knew me. I rolled my window down and he ran to me, paws up, tail wagging. I opened my door and he jumped in. He wasn't
microchipped, and his beautiful brown colors reminded me of coffee, so I named him Capuccino. In that moment, I knew he had chosen me-and I could never let him
go.

Last week Capuccino was diagnosed with diabetes and DKA and was hospitalized for three days. He came home and ate for one day, giving me hope, but then he stopped eating again. Now he needs to be hospitalized for more tests to find out what's wrong. I used all my funds on his first stay and don't have money for the care he needs. My heart is breaking because he is my family and I want to save him.

Capuccino is more than my dog, he is my best friend and my family. He has always been there for me, bringing love, comfort, and joy into my life. He is playful, sweet, and the best boy anyone could ask for. He deserves more time with a family than the three short years I've had with him, and I am fighting to give him the chance to keep living the happy life he deserves.

I applied for loans/credit and used every resource I had to pay Capuccino's medical bills, but I've now run out of money. I work, but my income isn't enough to cover the urgent care and tests he still needs.
Any help or sharing his story truly means the world to us.
