Lazlo Hemingway is a 7-year-old American Bulldog in Las Vegas, NV, who needs $550 for Lumpectomy & Gingival Hyperplasia Resection.

When I first adopted Lazlo in 2015, he was barely a yr old. I think at that time I was trying to fill a void as my daughter had been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and she was a young but of legal age adult. She quit treatment to live what little life she had left being happy and doing things she wanted to do. I lost her in 3/2017. That's when he went from being just a dog to being my BFF.

He sleeps in bed with me; he isn't aware of his size. He snores horribly, which has become my white noise that I can't go to sleep without now. He is my running partner and my peace on the worst of days. He hates to be left alone, he pouts, waiting right by the door until I return. He is a total foodie, he loves vegetables, especially asparagus.

He has been the one and only “constant” in my life regardless of The Who what where or when. He’s never once been anything but loyal. He’s truly my best friend ever. My only friend. He’s my reason why, why I keep pushing through all of the trials and tribulations I’ve been given in life. He’s the reason I keep getting back up every time I get knocked on my a**. I didn’t rescue him…he rescued me...

He’s got a lump on one of his boy boobs which the vet aspirated and said it’s fat, but due to it being on a mammary it needs to be removed. He said mammary lumps are unpredictable. He’s wanting to remove it at the same time he removes the oral tumor. He’s got a small benign tumor on the roof of his mouth. The vet says they’re invasive in the way of causing tooth loss, and it bleeds excessively.

I have been struggling for the last 5-6 years. After losing everything, I finally got a job 10/2020, which the company shut down back in June of this year. Unemployment is barely keeping me afloat and I hv to move out by the end of September.
