Pancho is a 6 Year Old Griffon Bruxellois in Los Angeles, CA, Who Needs $2,000 for Blood Transfusions, Steroids, Immunity Suppressant.

Pancho came into my life at the beginning of quarantine. I had just gotten over having COVID and was looking for a pup. And he needed a home. It was love at first sight! He is the sweetest dog. Such a great big brother to Tulí always looking over her, protecting her. He's the best shop dog too. Always happy to greet clients and make them feel comfortable. Being on their laps at every chance.

On October 30th Pancho woke up not himself. He was lethargic and not eating. It was weird. I made an appointment to see his vet. He sent us to the ER at Access Pasadena where they confirmed that Pancho has IMHA. It's an autoimmune disease in dogs in which the body attacks its own red blood cells. He had to stay overnight for 4 nights needing a blood transfusion before being allowed to go home.

Pancho is the most social butterfly. Always making friends, furry and human alike, and being a silly goofball. He loves being the center of attention and a good squeaky ball. His happy place is a crowded dog park or Rosie's dog beach. He loves chasing squirrels in the backyard with Tulí, his little kitty sister and watching over the neighborhood from his window perch. Usually, next to Tulí.

This has been an unexpected, sudden major expense. I wasn't prepared for the cost of the extended hospitalization and everything that comes along with that. Let alone what it's going to cost to bring him back to health. Please, I'm scared and overwhelmed and need your help.
