Oso is a 7 year old Mix-Breed in Fort Riley, KS, who needs $2,000 for Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD).

Oso was a gift for my birthday.We have been together roughly about 8years. He was a puppy when we first met. I remember when I first saw him right away he looked like a baby bear cub and so I decided from there on he will be called Oso which means bear in Spanish. He’s such a loving,playful dog he does have other dog siblings that he loves to tackle and play with. Always a boost of energy.

On Sep 12,2025 Oso was showing signs of
Intervertebral disc disease (IVDD) we had rushed in to the hospital to were we thought were broken limbs but he just became completely paralyzed as the doctor confirmed and would need an emergency surgery on his two behind legs. The Hospital that was able to take him in was KState Manhattan Emergency hospital.

Oso is the kind of dog that anyone would love to have. He is so loving and loves cuddles. He loves to bring you his toys and runs away when you try to reach for it that’s his way of playing trying to catch me. Not only does he loves other animals he loves his human brothers that loves to run and give him belly rubs and just sit and have a little snack together. He has basically grown up with them.

This was sadly an unexpected event and currently don’t have a job to pay for any of his expenses nor do I have anything saved for emergency. Anything would help to reach his goal to get his surgery and get back on his two hind legs up and running again. Thank you.
