Diesel is a 5-year-old Labrador, Husky, Pyrenees in Katy, TX, who needs $2,000 for Internal Medicine.

Diesel is a giant cuddlelovebug. He lives at home with my other dog Milo, my boyfriend's dog Chico, and us (the humans). He roams free around the house while we are at work, but he mostly sleeps. He is lazy, loving, food-centric, and is the sweetest dog you'll ever meet. His mother was a Husky and his father was a Labrador/Great Pyrenees mix - this makes for the most docile and loving dog

Diesel sleeps at the end of the bed (sometimes he sneaks up in the middle of the night and steals our pillows though) most of the time, but sometimes he gets hot and sleeps on the couch in the living room. HE plays with his brothers and any other dog that comes over. He loves to swim, eat, go for car rides, and play with tennis balls.

My favorite thing Diesel does is cuddle. Especially when it's cold. He loves to lay next to our heads and wrap his head around our necks. He always finds a way to get food from people by staring into their souls. He is one of those "so smart, he's dumb" dogs. His world revolves around human food/treats, so seeing him not interested in any food is very jarring.

Diesel contracted an autoimmune disease (IMTP). His blood was not clotting on its own and his immune system was attacking itself. He was put through 6 days of treatments and showed improvement with his platelets and red blood cell count. After taking him home, he refused to eat.The meds were affecting him and we had to take him back to the ER. He now has pancreatitis and needs constant care.

I have exhausted all of my funds and credit cards already from the first round of treatments, which were greater than $6,500. I have nothing left over for the treatment he now needs to survive.
