About this campaign

Keeping Mac healthy and mobile requires a lot of medication for pain, as well as physical rehab and shots for seasonal allergies. Mac also has reoccuring ear infections due to the seasonal allergies.

In November 2021, we learned that Mac was diagnosed with joint cancer, necessitating the immediate amputation of his back leg. Since the amputation, Mac has been undergoing intensive rehabilitation with his veterinarian to regain his mobility. Unfortunately, during this time, he has also developed severe arthritis, which has significantly impacted his mobility and quality of life.

Mac is the sweetest soul and brings a smile to everyone he meets. It has been heartbreaking to see him struggle with pain. His veterinarian has recommended a relatively new procedure called Synovetin that uses nuclear particles to attack the painful arthritis cells. This procedure would reduce Mac’s arthritis pain for a year.

Mac is a trooper and has not allowed his amputation to slow him down.It would mean the world if you helped out Mac and helped make the last year of his life the best one yet.
