About this campaign

King’s journey with our family began in a very special way. When he was just 11 weeks old, we found him through Craigslist, and from that moment on, he became the heart of our home. On June 21st, King turned 9 years old, surrounded by his family (mom, dad, brother, sister, and his adopted dog sister, Diamond). He has been with us through milestones, celebrations, and everyday moments.

On 8/16, King was rushed to the ER after a sudden seizure. He was admitted to OSU's Veterinary Oncology ICU, where doctors discovered he has an insulinoma, a tumor on his pancreas causing dangerous hypoglycemia. His blood sugar drops to life-threatening levels whenever he’s removed from the medications currently sustaining him. He still needs neurological testing & is scheduled for major surgery

he is the heart and joy of his family. He is talkative and loves to “chat” with his humans,but wrestling with his dad is one of his favorite activities. His favorite humans are his dad and his sister,(unless he's in trouble-then he's a mamas boy) and he especially loves watching videos on his sister’s phone. His big personality, goofiness, & gentle heart make him truly one-of-a-kind gentle giant

His ICU stay, surgery, and treatments are expected to total nearly $14,000, not including the lifelong medication and quarterly scans he will need to stay healthy. His family is doing everything they can to provide him with the best care possible, but this sudden and urgent
