Hank is a 9 year old German Shepherd Dog in Smyrna, , who needs $13,000 for Surgery for GDV and Spleen Removal.

I got Hank 9 years ago because my therapist recommended I get a therapy dog due to my anxiety and depression. He’s a pure bred German shepherd I got from a breeder in North GA! He’s been my best friend ever since and we live in a house in Smyrna GA. He’s got a big back yard to play in and just loves like so much. He has literally changed my life in the best of ways and I have so much love for him!

I got home to Hank acting very sickly and slow. His stomach was hard and bloated. I knew something was really wrong. So I took him to emergency vet care at Arista Advanced Pet Care in Atlanta GA. They diagnosed him and said his stomach had flipped and his spleen was on the verge of rupturing. He had to get emergency surgery to save his life. It was $13k :(

Hank is a giant teddy bear and loves everyone. He loooves kids and just wants to lick everyone to death. Fetch is by far his favorite activity! If you have a ball to throw, you are his best friend! He’s been there for me in my low times again and again. He’s the best of the best

I had to loan $13k just to get him the surgery and I’m now completely broke. I don’t have a way to pay it back. It was basically all I could do to save his life. He will also need so much special care with meds and follow up treatment that I just can’t afford
