Fuzzness Grizz Randall is a 5-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog in Tunnel Hill, GA, who needs $1,000 for Diagnosis and Treatment.

We got Fuzzness from Petland (I know that's a bad place now) 5 years ago. My youngest son, who was 5, said "let's name him Fuzzness!" The name just stuck sand it definitely suits him. We also have two cats. He is AKC registered. Fuzz is a full blooded Bernese Mountain Dog. He weighs 115lbs. His furr is long and gorgeous.

He loves pizza and I only know this because he used to stand up at the stove and steal a slice every time we had it! He sleeps on his orthopedic bed. Fuzz loves everyone. He wants butt scratches all the time. He has no idea he's so big. He loves squeak toys and for us to chase him to try and take it.

Fuzz has the most kind eyes. He is an oversized lapdog. He is like my child. There's just something about him. That goofy look. The always happy demeanor. Even his stubbornness is adorable. He loves me like on human ever has. He is scared of fireworks. He loves snow. He HATES the groomer. He likes to lay at the edge of our property and guard it. He is precious.

Fix has always had some hip issues but until recently it hasn't been this intense. I'm not sure if it's the same stuff but getting worse or if something new is happening. Either way he really needs treatment because he can barely walk for the last few days. It's possible that it's hip dysplasia that will need ongoing treatment.

I was divorced in February but separated a while before that. When we separated I had to live off of credit cards until they were maxed out. I was out of work when I fractured my hip. I just can't afford the whole amount to take fuzz to the vet. I need help.
