Nino is a 14-year-old Jack Russell in Cincinnati , OH, who needs $2,000 for Perineal Urethrostomy.

Hello I’ve been blessed with my fur baby Nino for 14 years. Nino lost his companion Polow who I had for 16 years in May of 2023 so it’s been a tough time for my family and I.

Nino is sweet, full of energy, loves to cuddle and always steals the hearts of anyone who meets him. He lost his Yorkie companion this past year so it’s been hard Nino as well as my family.

Nino loves special treats i.e. eating blueberries or something special from out local pet store. Nino is scared of thunder so those are the times he needs more cuddle time and I always enjoy the company of my fur baby during those times.

Nino went into the vet last Thursday for what I thought was an upset tummy I was sent home with pain meds and unfortunately had to return Friday due to Nino bleeding from his rear end. Nino has a UTI and the doctors are recommending an emergency PU surgery. The vet said he’s made improvements but his quality of life is at stake once the catheter is removed and I don’t want to lose another pet.

It would mean to the world to me if Nino’s life can be saved. The PU survey is going to cost thousands of dollars which i don’t have and I’m on a fixed income that I’ve been using to cover his current expenses.
