About this campaign

Rayce is our magnificent, purebred rottweiler who came from a breeder in Utah. With us through my pregnancy and his big brother's entire life, Rayce is now 8. He has been the center of our world for so many years and it has been devastating to learn that he has a very aggressive form of cancer- osteosarcoma. Without this surgery, he will die in 2-3 months.

Rayce came to us in 2014 and has been my son's big brother his whole life. Their bond is incredibly deep & touching. We also have a cat that Rayce gets along with fabulously. Every person to meet Rayce remarks on what a loving, affectionate dog he is. Attention from his people is all he wants. Snuggles every morning and following us wherever we go shows what a deeply attached creature he is.

Rayce's best friend is his little boy. He is gentle and sings when Rennan laughs. He sleeps at the foot of our bed and doesn't let us out without some cuddle time. After bath, Rayce gets the zoomies. He has such a big personality and is always the center of attention. Moreover, he is an emotional, intelligent animal that wants to be loved.

Rayce was diagnosed with osteosarcoma of his hind left leg and we would like to pursue treatment involving surgical removal of the bone and tumor. This is a new, advanced procedure that would not otherwise be an option for treatment. His surgeon is Dr Wheeler with Bridger Veterinary Specialists and his oncologist is Dr. Kelly Carlsten.

I was laid off last year due to COVID and we have no means to cover his expenses for treatment, let alone pain management. To prolong his life means everything to us. We cannot simply watch him deteriorate rapidly and with no quality of life.
