Muffin is a 2 year old Mix-Breed in Albany, NY, who needs $5,500 for Orthopedic Surgery.

Muffin is the sweetest, loving boy I ever had. He needed a home and I took him in. He's named after my dear friends brother who passed. I live alone with another puppy named grandma, he sleeps near me and protects me. I feel safe when he's with me and he's been such a great emotional support dog.

recently suffered a terrible injury. After reviewing the x-rays, Dr. Andersen at VCA Ballston Spa confirmed that Muffin has a very nasty, painful fracture.Muffin needs a critical orthopedic surgery to repair the bone properly so he can walk, run, and live a pain-free life again. Dr. Andersen wants to move forward with the operation as soon as possible

A week ago, I suffered from 3 blood clots, I'm only in my 30s very abnormal, if it wasn't for muffin I wouldn't have known, I avoid the Drs myself. I was playing. With him and I thought I injured my leg. I wouldn't have went to the hospital, with out cause. I would have went about my days and struggled thinking I would have been okay. If it wasn't for him, I would have died.

I have never been down like this, medically unable to work atm. I love him so much. I still carry him up the stairs with 3 blood clots in my leg. I'd die for him, he protects me with his life. I can't imagine giving him up permanently, just bc I'm down atm.
