Israel is a 4-year-old Pit Bull in Fort Wayne , IN, who needs $1,500 for Surgery for Intestinal Blockage.

Israel is a fun loving and caring dog. He has recently lost his best friend that he has been around since he came home. He has 2 teenagers that love him very much and mom.

He protects everyone in the house. He will sit outside the bathroom door when any of us are in there taking a shower to protect us. He loves cuddling up and loving on us. He gets excited to see us and welcomes us at the door.

He tries jumping but is not a good jumper but it makes us laugh because he tries so hard. He flips onto the floor instead of slowing laying down and it’s just funny how he acts sometimes.

Right now he is fighting for his life, somehow somewhere he swallowed a corn cob and it’s stuck inside. Since this has happened he has been vomiting and trying not to make a mess he has been swallowing back down and he now has a fever of 103 and from the aspiration has pneumonia in one of his lungs. He needs surgery ASAP so anything will help. My kids and I are really hurting

I am a single mom working as hard as I can and trying to make things happen for us and be happy. It would mean everything for any help possible to make our Isreal better. We lost one a little over a week ago and my kids and we are hurting more now and don’t want to lose him
