About this campaign

At just three months old, Midnight should be spending his days running, playing, and discovering the world around him.

Instead, this young Poodle puppy is living with bilateral luxating patellas, a condition in which both kneecaps slip out of their normal position. Luxating patellas can cause pain, difficulty walking, and instability in the hind legs. Without treatment, the condition can worsen over time and lead to chronic discomfort and arthritis.

After being rescued from a dangerous situation, Midnight is finally safe and receiving the care he needs. His next step is surgery to correct his knees and give him the opportunity to grow into a healthy, active dog.

The procedure will help stabilize his kneecaps so they remain in their proper position, improving his mobility and reducing the risk of long-term pain and joint damage.

Your donation will help cover Midnight's surgery, veterinary care, medications, and recovery so he can heal and move comfortably.

With your support, Midnight can leave his difficult past behind, recover from surgery, and begin the search for the loving forever family every puppy deserves.

Thank you for helping give Midnight the chance at a healthier future.

8/8/26 Update: A Glimpse at Midnight's Struggle

Midnight is still just a puppy, but even something as simple as walking is a challenge for him.

In the video included in the campaign image carousel, Midnight can be seen hobbling as he moves around. His gait is noticeably different from the other dogs, showing just how much his knee condition is affecting him.

Midnight is still waiting for the surgery he needs to correct his knee and give him the chance to grow up active, comfortable, and able to keep up with the other puppies.

Donations will help Foundation of Caring Animal Supporters provide the surgery and care Midnight needs.

Every contribution brings this little puppy one step closer to running and playing the way a puppy should.
