About this campaign

A friend contacted me about a woman who, recovering from surgery, needed to find a new home for her dog, Marley. After sharing this with others, & giving it much thought, my family decided to meet him. We welcomed him into our home that day, he has not been with us long but is a charished member of our family, bringing joy and love to everyone. He is the heart of our family, which includes 3 kids

He initially experienced sneezing and was treated for allergies. His nasal discharge prompted the start of antibiotics. He now has a nasal lump, and his breathing is difficult. 3 vets have recommended a rhinoscopy/CT scan. After contacting over 30 clinics, I've located only four that offer this specialized care. The cost is $3000-$5000

Marley generously shares his affection with everyone he encounters, including adults with disabilities and senior citizens. My son, who was once afraid of dogs, is now Marley's best friend. My two daughters adore him and eagerly anticipate playing with and feeding him each day. I cannot imagine life without him. He gently rests his head on people's shoulders and brings joy to everyone he meets.

I work part-time and have scleroderma. Due to my disability and the responsibilities of raising three children, my financial resources are limited. I am unable to afford the full cost of the procedure, which I feel is unfair to Marley. I have been seeking ways to assist him
