Lucky is a 13 year old Mix-Breed in Herndon, VA, who needs $2,000 for Emergency Care with Ultrasound Follow Up.

Lucky is a sweet pupp who I rescued at a gas station. He is my best friend, and I will never abandon him. But, now, Lucky is ill, and I feel helpless. Because, on Feb 9, 2025, I fell off a ladder and broke my back. I was hospitalized for 4+ weeks, and had 4 spinal fusions. So, now, Lucky needs me, but I can’t even walk yet.

Lucky has always had positive test results when I took him to his Vet. But, recently, Lucky was exposed to eColi, and was very ill. He was treated at an ER Vet Clinic, and overcame his illness. But, the eColi partly damaged his kidney, resulting in a blockage in his digestive tract. Now, Lucky is at an ER vet clinic where I just learned his illness is treatable.

Lucky has been at my side since the day I held him. He doesn’t even need a leash when I go outside to work around my house. He has a relationship with all of my neighbors, and he follows me everywhere. And, even my friends say Lucky thinks I’m his real mother. Lucky is a bit overprotective of me, his mother, but he’s the sweetest dog to everyone he meets.

I am a self employed vet tech who cares for all types of dogs. But, due to my back injury, and for the first time in my life, I had to cancel all of my February and March booking requests. The only booking requests I have not canceled are my requests in late April.
