Jonah is a 9 year old German Shepherd Dog in Nazareth, PA, who needs $2,000 for GDV Surgery and Splenectomy.

I got Jonah as a puppy 9 years ago when I was 14 years old. He’s been my constant best friend and companion. I’m a full time student so we live with my mom and sister. They also love Jonah so much

Tuesday the 15th of October Jonah was crying and pacing around the yard. Trying to throw up but it appeared extremely painful. We rushed him to an emergency vet at 11pm and were shortly afterwards informed he had a severe case of Bloat. Meaning his stomach was filled with gas and had flipped, cutting off circulation. All this lead to him needing emergency overnight surgery to save his life.

Jonah has been my best friend all through my teenage years and now into my 20’s. He has a little sister Chia, a 2 year old Anatolian Shepherd. He also spends his evenings relaxing by a fire in the wood stove with his “gam gam”, my mom.

I am a full time student that works at a cafe on all my days off from classes. Jonah’s life saving surgery came to $6,600. I am trying to pick up extra shifts to help pay for it while balancing making sure he has a smooth recovery.
