Cobi is a 4-year-old Belgian Malinois in Stanley, NC, who needs $1,778 for Femoral Head Osteotomy.

Almost 5 years ago my family was ready to get a dog, we worked hard fenced in our back yard so he would have room to run and started our search, the moment I seen Cobi's picture I knew he was meant to be with us. So our journey began with a 3 hour drive to pick him up and back home we went.

Cobi's favorite place no matter what is beside me, in the bed with me, in the bathroom with me, his favorite thing to do is go outside or try to chase a cat.

He's so goofy when you pet him if there's a certain place he wants you to scratch he will move his body until your hand is where he wants it to be. When he's happy to see you and is wagging his tail he ends up wagging his whole body.

Cobi is overall healthy until he sustained his injury a week ago he never showed signs of having distress with his hips. I took him to an emergency clinic immediately.

I am on disability I also have a part time job I receive public assistance and still struggle to make ends meet, I have two teenage children and I'm also raising my 3 year old grandson
