Milo is a 13 year old American Staffordshire Terrier in Kingston, MA, who needs $2,000 for Sub Cruciate Ligament Surgery.

I adopted Milo when he was a puppy. He has been an amazing part of our family and did everything with us while my kids were growing up. He was a great swimmer and especially loved swimming in the ocean. He would try to swim out to meet kayakers and boats and we would yell chicken which he would immediately turn around and come to shore for. He loved walks ,hiking and camping.

Approximately six years ago tore ACL on right leg and had PTLO surgery. He has torn his right , but in past it healed, but this time not healing and to point that he can only walk on it to go out for bathroom and so this is causing his unsteadiness and mobility to decrease and my fear is that he will just continue to lose muscle mass and have more arthritis without the surgery on his left leg.

Milo had a consultation at Cape Cod Veterinary Specialists in Buzzards Bay and is all set for surgery. Now all I need is the money to pay for it.
I take care of my Mother full time so this has been financially difficult times. She is 95, has dementia and is a high fall risk/ frail. We call Milo her nurse puppy because he watches over her and alerts me and wakes me up if I don’t hear her at night

I’ve been doing everything possible to save money for Milo’s surgery including selling possessions, then recently I had to sink money into my vehicle because was unsafe to drive.
Milo has always been our source of joy so all I want , is to give him the joy of walking again.
