Erebus is a 4-year-old Boxer/Pit in Fort Wayne, IN, who needs $374 for Cold Laser Therapy.

I rescued Erebus around 3 years ago from Angola shelter, they said he was found as a stray. He was adopted by someone, but was brought back after only a week. They said they couldn't handle him. His name comes from a Greek God, representing the personification of darkness, born of chaos. He is my jokester, MY chaos! And I wouldn't have him any other way!! He is my cuddle buddy and my protector!!!

Erebus enjoys jumping in my bed after I get up to sleep the day away, his favorite pass time. He enjoys walks around the neighborhood and chatting with the other dogs and ALL the kids!! He loves his little buddies, 3 rats, to play on the bed with him and sniff him. LoL and so fun for me to watch! He also loves his tennis ball, and chew bones, and of course THE TREATS!!!

With Covid hitting I have lost ALL my over time at work, which allowed me to have a savings, but I have had to empty that savings account to pay my bills to survive. So now I do not have the extra funds to help my baby to get the surgery he desperately needs right now.

Erebus has a condition with the tip of his tail, he wags it so much that he breaks it open. It bleeds constantly and is very painful for him. We have done everything possible to help him, but it has come down to docking his tail. Dr. Kyle Yarde at Animal Care Clinic in Auburn IN is going to take about 6 inches off the end. This will keep him from breaking it open, and allow him to be pain free.

Erebus's best friend is our Gemma. We brought Gemma into our family 2 years ago Halloween. Erebus took to her instantly, Especially since we lost Akasha (his very FIRST best friend) I was scared for Erebus when Akasha passed, he wouldn't eat, wouldn't drink or do ANYTHING but lay there. You see Erebus has the habit of letting the Ladies eat first and then he will eat. Such a true gentleman.
