Jake is a 10-year-old Jack Russel Mix Dog in Grand Rapids , MI, who needs $2,000 for Femoral head and neck osteotomy.

I’m honestly too depressed about what Jake is going through that I can’t think enough to write a story. I felt so blessed that he came into my life… and now I’m overcome with guilt. Had they given Jake to someone who had money, he would be ok today. I took him to be neutered at C Snip on 3/23/22, he supposedly had an undescended testicle, so they had to do a more invasive surgery&broke his hips.

He was such a beautiful, super smart, energetic boy… until his hips were broke on 3/23/22. He is becoming much more unstable on his feet since yesterday. He needs surgery and medical care as soon as possible. I don’t think he can hold on much longer. His pelvis is getting more unstable since yesterday. I can’t watch this much longer. My heart hurts so very badly.Any help would be so appreciated.

Jake is so loving and he’s goofy. He cuddles with me at night and he makes me laugh and smile with his goofiness. I really can’t concentrate right now to talk about what he was like before he got hurt at C Snip. He was such a happy puppy… a joyful pup. He still tries to be himself, but this has taken a huge toll on both him and me.

Jake hips were broken during a neutering. He had an undescended testicle. He was only 8 1/2 months old. He’s a smaller dog at 15 pounds and small hips. He needs both hips fixed now. He’s becoming way more unstable on his feet since yesterday. I am too sad to even think straight right now. Seeing him sleeping in his crate all the time because he’s in pain and can’t do much is so hard for me.

I have life threatening medical problems and my only source of income is disability. Jake being injured and me being unable to help him get surgery is killing me. I just feel I can’t go on anymore. He is the only reason I get up anymore…. But watching this is killing me
