Koda is a 5 year old Great Pyrenees in Ramsey, MN, who needs $1,000 for TPLO Surgery.

Koda came into our life five years ago when we rescued him from an organization that was at PetSmart. He was a medium size dog that we were told that was probably around two years old to find out that he was only six months old so he doubled in size very quickly he has been a wonderful part of our family. We have another dog that will be totally lost without him.

Koda recently tore his ACL and requires the surgery to fix unfortunately for him. He’s a larger size dog, so it’s not easy for him to get around to go to the bathroom and keep him contained in an area.

Dakotah is definitely a talker. He is very vocal loud and a big boy people are thrown off by his size and how big of a teddy bear he is he loves to sit on people’s lap and he definitely thinks he’s a small boy and doesn’t realize the way he has on him. He brings such joy to our family. I would hate to see him have to be put down because he can’t receive the surgery he needs.

Due to the amount of money that the surgery is requiring is just not feasible for our family right now we also had to purchase a surgery for other dog a few years back. With Dakotah being so young and because of his size he would not be able to sustain not having the surgery
