About this campaign
I adopted Fynn (aka, Fynnjamin, Fynnie Boy, Fynnster) 8 years ago, when I was 19 years old. He was my first dog and we've been inseparable ever since. He has been by my side as I graduated college, got married, and bought a home for him and our other pups to thrive in. He is cuddly, loves belly rubs, and snacks are his absolute favorite!
In April of 2024, 7 months after we lost our eldest dog Carl, Fynn was diagnosed with malignant melanoma. It was fully removed via surgery. He has been undergoing treatments for the past year in the form of the ONCEPT vaccine, routine x-rays, and lymph-nod cytology through the VCA Oncology clinic here in Albuquerque. We have routine appointments every 3 months.
Fynn is the sweetheart of the family, always cuddling up to us on the couch, in bed, or next to his sister Sawyer. As I type this, he is lying at my feet snoring soundly. He loves to run around outside with his sister, play nosey-neighbor with the other dogs around, and chase the bugs outside. He's real big on ANY treat or attention! I can't imagine our lives without our sweet, sweet Fynn.
Unfortunately, each injection costs over $1,000 alone, without the costs for x-rays, sedation, cytology, etc. Fynn has undergone the initial series and has had a booster, but will require a booster every 6 months for the rest of his life to hopefully keep the cancer at bay.
