Happy is a 4 year old St. Bernard in Lapine, OR, who needs $800 for Radiographs of Abdomen-3 View, Chemistry Panel w/Lytes.

I was in line at a store in Burns, Or & heard the person in front of me say the man that got one of the puppies he breed could no longer handle the dog & they were going to "take him out and shoot him." Knowing only that he was a Saint Bernard' mix I spoke up and said "I'll take the dog." Two days later Happy came into my life and rescued me ❤️

Happy became noticeably ill about 2 weeks ago. I took him to the veterinary referral center in Bend and they believe he has a possible obstruction. So far we have spent about $400. However, he needs abdominal x-rays and blood work to determine if that is indeed the problem. A bowel obstruction can be deadly if not treated quickly. I need approximately 700 more dollars to continue his treatment.

Happy is the reason I'm alive today. I was at the lowest point in my life & had given up. Happy wouldn't allow it. He was my guardian angel that day & the only thing that kept me going the last few years. Without him, I don't do well emotionally.

I went through a very emotionally abusive relationship that ended in 2022. Since, I have had a difficult time obtaining employment. In March I was awarded Happy in court. My ex took him, left for 6mo to AK, & left Happy w/ a stranger. I just got him back I can't lose him ❤️
