Ollie is a 10 year old Mix-Breed in Toledo, OH, who needs $2,000 for TPLO Surgery.

Hello everyone! My name is Brittany and I would like you to meet my best friend Ollie! Ollie is a 10 year old pup who came into my life after I got out of the US Navy and was dealing with some personal struggles emotionally and mentally. He's what I call a "gutter puppy" but he is my best friend and true dog that helps me with my depression and panic disorder/panic attacks.

Ollie has two torn ACLs that need attention in order to ease his discomfort. As of now, the vet at West Suburban Animal Hospital in Toledo, OH has advised that each would have to be operated on at separate times. So one would have to be operated on. Given as how he still loves his walkies, this surgery would greatly benefit his quality of life keep him longer in my life.

Ollie is a very sweet, gentle and obedient dog. He loves kids and is very calm and well mannered with the elderly and all who meet him. He gets along great with our cats and other dogs and is pretty mellow when meeting horses and other unique animals. Ollie loves his family very much and never turns down cuddling on the couch or bed. He's been deemed a service dog at times even though he's not.

My income is not the greatest and as someone working 2 jobs, I'm just barely able to make ends meet with other expenses. I love my dog dearly and seeing him in pain bothers me. I don't really like asking for help, but I feel I have to swallow my pride and reach out. Please.
