Finley is a 2-year-old American Pitbull Terrier in De Forest, WI, who needs $2,000 for Tibial Plateau-leveling Osteotomy (TPLO).

We picked up Finley from a family about 6 hours away from us to help complete our family! We just never knew how much he would end up changing our lives forever! He is the sweetest boy who loves to cuddle! He may look intimidating, but he is actually the biggest baby who is in touch with his emotions. If he could, he would spend every single day outside with his Frisbee!

Finley loves people! He has no problem coming up to you and just sitting in your lap! He enjoys kisses and has the greatest smile! Getting a belly rub has got to be one of his most favorite activities. He is a good boy who loves sleeping in his kennel alone, but if he once he hears thunder, he's making his way into the bathroom.

When we got the news about Finley, we were caught by surprise by the severity of his condition. This will be the second major surgery that one of our babies has needed this year. By getting this surgery, Finley will finally be able to play without pain and restrictions.

Finley has torn both of this ACL's in both of his knees. Because of his size, the doctor recommended that we get surgery as it would be the best solution for the long term. Also due to the fact of how young he still is, if we didn't do the operation he would have to live a life full of
physical restrictions. The procedure will be done at our local veterinary clinic by their orthopedic doctor.

Finley loves to sunbathe while laying on the grass with his Frisbee in his mouth. If he had it his way, he would stay outside all day! When he gets excited, he does his little happy dance where he pounces up an down only with his front legs, he tucks his ears back and resembles Dobby from Harry Potter, and gives you the biggest smile.
