Milo is a 6-year-old German Shepherd in Whiteville, NC, who needs $1,800 to have Broken Foot Plates Added.

Milo was a rescue from a local kill shelter. He became apart of our family 5 years ago! He lives with us in a couple acres where he can run and play. He is the only dog we own. We love Milo and have taken care of him without any issues until now. He loves his home. He has access to a dog door but stays inside. He can run freely in our back yard.

Milo and my two year old Granddaughter, Ellie are best friends! Milo is Ellie’s protector . Ellie came to live with us as an infant and Milo has never left her side since. There is a bond that was created out of love! She calls him “Milmo” since she can’t say Milo! She throws his ball for him and laughs so hard. She loves him.

Milo never meets a stranger. He licks and plays with everyone. He absolutely loves playing fetch. He always has a ball in his mouth. And he is so gentle. He thinks he is a little dog and climbs in Ellie’s crib with her. He opens doors by himself and he knows many commands. He is absolutely smart, and loving! He protects Ellie no matter what. He is always by her side.

Milo is extremely healthy. He has not ever had any issues. He ran into a car and then two stray dogs attacked him. He was unconscious or in shock and we had to defend him. He broke his foot completely into. It is so damaged that they wanted $7000 to complete the surgery. They told me to put him down because of his size and it being his front paw but I could not do it. Ellie loves him! But I also

I financially support my Granddaughter now. She came to live with us at birth because her father abandoned her. This caused financial difficulties on us. That is why I can’t afford to pay for Milo’s surgery. I will have to chose feeding my granddaughter over Milo! 😭
