About this campaign
Morty came to me in my early 20's. A neighbor found him right before a 2 week trip to Italy, so I took him in for "foster" that same same day. After maybe an hour with him I headed to PetSmart to buy him a collar, made an appointment for a neuter, and started the process of adopting him. He currently lives with his younger brother, Rigby, my cat, Bodack, and an ever rotating cycle of foster dogs.
I have always had pet insurance for Morty, which allowed me to take him in at the slightest sign of illness. In 2023, he had a benign plasmacytoma removed which is causing pet insurance to count lymphoma as pre-existing. His lymph nodes began swelling 7/29, and I took him to the emergency vet. After several tests with B cell confirmed, we are working with Saint Francis Veterinary for treatment.
Morty is my entire life. He loves everyone-dogs, cats, kids, adults, the vet. He is always with me, and for several years acted as a service dog for me in public spaces. He is an amazing ambassador of pittie type dogs, and everyone who meets him loves him. He loves to go on walks, and he has a special touch with shy dogs that help them get out of their shell.
I am a single breadwinner. I pay all of my bills alone, and I have exhausted my personal resources, including family support. I don't make much, and I try to supplement with dog sitting but his treatment is going to be close to $10,000 plus.
