Indo is a 4 year old Labrador Retriever in Wilmington, NC, who needs $2,000 for Herniated Disc Surgery and Recovery.

Indo came into my life as a puppy and I fell instantly in love. Indo goes everywhere with me from work to the store, he's my best friend. It's just he and I. Indo is not your typical lab but an old soul. He's only 4 years old but most people think he's much older. He is loved by everyone. When the kids in the neighborhood see me pull in they chase my car calling his name.

Indo herniated a disc in his neck (6th and 7th vertebrae) and had to have emergency surgery. He is currently at Charleston Veterinary Referral Center which is a 4 hour drive from where I live. Prognosis is good but he is not currently walking. He weighs 110 lbs so recovery is going to be hard for him. The vet wants to keep him a few more days in the hospital to manage his pain and get him walking

Indo is not your typical lab. He's easy going, loves to lay around, loves to swim but HATES a bath. Everyone that meets him loves him. He's stubborn, just like me, and if he doesn't want to do something he will not do it. On our walks he will randomly lay down on the side walk and refuse to move. People will laugh at him as they walk by and sometimes I'm sure they are laughing at me.

It's just me and Indo. I work a commission based job so sometimes things aren't always easy. Living where I do the rent is rather high, keeps going up, and is a lot for a single person to afford. Indo is my best friend and having him healthy and back by my side is all I want
