Nico is a 6 month old French Bulldog in Medford, OR, who needs $5,000 for Stent Implant.

My kiddo’s dad passed away unexpectedly in 2021 and my oldest daughter has struggled over the years with her mental health and grief. Her therapist recommended a puppy for emotional support. In January, we made Nico a part of our family, and he is the sweetest baby. In just 6 short months, my daughter has formed a deep bond with Nico. She chose his name after Nico DiAngelo from Percy Jackson 🩷

Nico was diagnosed with a congenital heart condition called Pulmonic Stenosis and his case is severe. Without surgery, his prognosis is not good.

Washington State University (The Small Animal Teaching Hospital) has recommended Nico have a Stent Implant Procedure. The Cardiologist gave us a good prognosis for Nico, post-operatively. This surgery will SAVE HIS LIFE.

Nico is a very special boy for many reasons. His very best friends are his human sisters & brother, but he also has two furry friends named Bella & Tilly that he plays with. Nico makes the funniest noises & he is very energetic. He loves to play, but he also enjoys cuddling up with his humans when it’s nap time. He likes to sleep up on the pillows at the top of the bed like the king of the castle

I am a single mother to 3 humans and Nico. I just recently started a new job, and have already drained every penny from my savings paying his bills so far (about 4k) This has been an extremely hard process and unfortunately I don’t have this kind of money, but Nico is family
