About this campaign

On 3/17/14 Mr. Jesse James was rescued from being euthanized. Shortly after that day our journey began. I had a hysterectomy this August and beat cancer using all my savings. In November my world crashed down when I was told Jesse was diagnosed with Lymphoma. It is his turn now and with one treatment given he is in clinical remission and will require a few more to make sure it stays that way.

No matter who meets him they fall in love with him. He just wants to be loved, touched and snuggled. He sleeps with me and his older sister every night. I know he's my dog but my whole family loves him. He is family, like my child (I cant have children). MY grandmother was battling cancer I was able to take him into the nursing home where he was able to visit. He is such an important family member

I have gotten divorced, lost my 2nd job due to covid, I was fourloughed due to covid and had to take 6 weeks off due to surgery. This has put me in to a fincial bind. Any and all of my savings has been depleted. To have him healthy is more then any money could ever give.

When our regular vet diagnosed him with Lymphoma she had directed us to Gaurdian Vet. We had a consultation and was advised that he was at a stage 4. We were given options, and the vet advised us that his quality of life may improve. I was very ill. After one treatment he is in clinical remission and will need a few more to make sure it stays that way. His quality of life has really improved.

Jesse is a bil ol goof ball!!! He has given life to my older pup. He encourages her to play or will alert us the outside. He is always wanting to be in my lap. He is 75 lbs and doesn't know it at all. He will try to "talk" when he wants your attention and will fight to get it as well. It is always an adventure with him around. I can take him anywhere and he isnwell behaved. A gentleman!!!!
