Choco is a 9 month old Labrador Retriever in Homeland, CA, who needs $2,000 for FHO Surgery.

Choco has been with me since he was 6 weeks old. The minute I saw him I just fell in love! I heard that brown Labs had such a loving laid back personality and Choco proved that rumor right.

In the last month I noticed he started favoring his left leg. He does have 2 sisters around the same age and they play all the time. I thought he just injured his leg from the rough play. I noticed Choco started wanting to rest more so I made a vet appointment for him. After an exam and x-rays with Haven Animal Hospital, it was determined he has hip Dysplasia with mild osteoarthritis.

Choco is such a loving doggy! The love he has for everyone is just comforting. He is so good with my grand babies too. It’s hard to think he was in pain all this time. Our vet referred him to Inland Empire Veterinary Surgical Specialist. After speaking with them the estimate for the surgery is $4800-$5800.

Unfortunately this is not something I can afford. Even getting care credit, it would be a $500 payment a month which I do not have. I can’t imaging Choco being in pain for the rest of his life. Please help if you can. 🙏🏼
