Monty is a 5 year old Mix-Breed in Willowick, OH, who needs $2,000 for Hardware Removal & TPLO.

Monty was chained outside in the summer months & rescued by Animal Charity of Ohio. I then rescued Monty from Animal Charity. He is now or family dog & the most loved member of our household. He used to go everywhere with us, baseball games, track meets, sled riding, football games, dinners, hikes, swimming, runs, if it wasn't dog friendly, we didn't go. He is not just a dog, he's our family.

Monty tore both of his CCL's and had TTA to repair his left hind leg 8/2024. He developed seroma & infection, but healed. Had is right TTA 10/2024. He broke the hardware in Right TTA & Had revision of Right leg 12/2024. He was "cleared" by vet 3/2025. May 2025 he started to limp, vet said it was arthiritis, but I got second opinion & now he has to have TTA hardware removed, recover & have TPLO

Monty is the goodest boy ever. At 6 months old, I took him to Sirius Strides, who train service animals. Although he is not registered as a service animal, he has not met a dog or person who wasn't his immediate best friend. He loves chasing his squirrel-friends, loves off-leash hikes, playing outdoors, he LOVES LOVES LOVES the snow & making doggy-angles. He misses playing with his friends.

I'm a single mom of 3 teenage kids, with 1 income After spending $13,000 on his first 3 surgeries, I hit a financial hardship. I don't know how I can afford his next 2 surgeries to repair the incorrect procedures that were initially done. I would give him my legs, if I could
