Ozzie is a 3 year old Mix-Breed in Sale Creek, , who needs $2,000 for Enterotomy.

We debated for the longest time on adding another addition to our pet family. I wanted a small pup and in a very Tanner fashion (IYKYK) he brought me home a Sheepadoodle—which is quite the opposite of the mini schnauzers and dachshunds I’d been looking at. But since bringing our boy into our lives, almost three years ago—he has been the source of so many snuggles, laughs, and joy!

On Tuesday, March 11, Ozzie took a deep dive into our bathroom trashcan—something he’s done before and we have tried our best to keep from happening again. If you’re a doodle owner, you know they’re a special breed—persistent and curious. A Friday vet visit to SRAH in Dayton, TN confirmed are worst fears, an obstruction requiring a surgery with a very four figure cost.

Wozzie, as we have nicknamed him, is the biggest goofball! He can often be found throwing all 72 pounds of himself onto your lap. He loves a good snuggle and playing footsie. He loves to wrestle with his bubby, Maxwell, as well as menacing the cat. He’s Brylee’s biggest annoyance and her bestest friend.

This is a very unexpected expense, that we simply aren’t prepared for. If you’re a pet owner, you know that emotionally you’d do anything and everything to save your fur baby—but with the extreme cost of veterinary medicine (as well as everything else) it’s hard to prepare.
