About this campaign

Five years ago, Harley was given a second chance when he was rescued. Since then, he has spent every day proving just how much love one dog can give. To his mom, Harley isn't "just a pet." He's her best friend, her constant companion, and the source of unconditional love that's carried her through life's hardest moments. Now, Harley needs her more than ever.

Earlier this year, his mom noticed several swollen lymph nodes and rushed him to the veterinarian. After extensive testing, Harley received devastating news: multicentric lymphoma, an aggressive form of cancer that can progress rapidly without treatment. There was no time to wait. Harley immediately began the CHOP chemotherapy protocol, giving him the best chance to fight back against this terrible disease. And then something incredible happened. Harley responded beautifully to treatment and achieved remission. But his fight isn't over yet.

While remission is an amazing milestone, Harley still needs 11 additional chemotherapy treatments to give him the best chance of keeping the cancer under control and enjoying many more happy years with the person who loves him most. Without completing treatment, the cancer is far more likely to return.

The cost of Harley's remaining chemotherapy—including Vincristine, Cyclophosphamide, and Doxorubicin—is overwhelming. His devoted mom has done everything possible to keep his treatment going, and Paws 4 A Cure has stepped in with a grant to help. Even so, thousands of dollars in medical expenses remain, leaving Harley's future uncertain.

Harley has already shown that he can beat the odds. Now he simply needs the opportunity to finish the treatment that's giving him hope.

Please consider making a donation toward Harley's chemotherapy today. Every dollar helps provide another treatment, another tail wag, another walk, another memory, and another day with the family who loves him beyond measure.

If you're unable to donate, sharing Harley's story is another powerful way to help. Together, we can help Harley stay in remission and continue enjoying the life he fought so hard to keep.
