About this campaign

In October of 2015, we adopted Jethro, the puppy love of our life! We knew as soon as we met him in person — he was running all around, jumping in and out of our laps, licking us, completely out of his mind, but most of all full of life, that he was coming home with us. Jethro is now a pup of divorce however he is deeply loved by both of his parents and loves his time in both of his homes.

Jethro is fighting cancer for the 3rd time. He was first dx in 2019 with Hemangiosarcoma. (HSA) Given 6-8 mo. to live. We removed his leg. He beat the odds! He was dx in 2023 with Renal Carcinoma. We removed his kidney. Beat the odds! Jethro is fighting HSA again and has several tumors. Most are responding to treatment. One tumor has doubled in size! Oncology team at University of Florida/

Jethro does not know he has cancer. He is just living his happy puppy life! He lives for chilling on the patio, walks, sniffing, happy puppy rolls, barking at bunnies, squirrels, geckos ,birds etc. Taking our bedding apart to make it more comfy for him! As we always say "This is Jethro's world and we just live in it!" and we want to live in his world for as many years to come!

Jethro has undergone multiple rounds of chemotherapy, 2 major surgeries, 1 cryosurgery, countless CT scans, MRIs, ultrasounds, bloodwork, specialist visits. With pet insurance the out of pocket expenses over 7 years has caught up. He needs surgery to remove the large tumor.
