Keelo is a 3 Year Old American Pit Bull Terrier in Cameron, NC, Who Needs $2,000 for SA Chemo Treatment (Doxorubicin).

We met Keelo in Jan 2021 after a relative offered us a puppy. He was the only tan one and came home on Apr 3. We named him Keelo on the way to Walmart for his stuff. He’s been with us 3.5 years. Lala (his gf) joined a year earlier and has been with us 4.5 years. They had puppies, and one, Milo, stayed with family. As Milo grew and Keelo got sick, they began to clash, so we keep them apart for now.

On July 30, 2025, Keelo received a diagnosis of stage 3-5A lymphoma cancer. I would like for him to receive SA chemo treatment every three weeks with  four to five months of remission. Keelo was going to the Blue Pearl Animal Hospital in Cary with Dr. Karri Miller. I do plan on giving him at home remedies for longer remission.

His human mother (my gf) is Keelos' favorite person. He will immediately take my place and cuddle under his mother as soon as I get out of bed in the morning. Keelo despises summertime and being outside in the heat. Keelo's bunny-like hops make me smile when he runs. I found it funny that Keelo would bring you his dog bowl when he was hungry. Keelo is not an aggressive dog; he loves people.

I worked for a trucking company that paid well and helped me care for Keelo, but I quit when they mismanaged my finances. Issues with my CDL followed, and now I’m trying to fix them with no income, debts to pay, and Keelo’s health still my priority.
