Specks is a 3 month old Pembroke Welsh Corgi in Phoenix, AZ, who needs $5,000 for Portosystemic Shunt.

Sometimes the smallest companions make the biggest difference. Specks, a Corgi and Heeler mix and the runt of his litter, came into my life to help with depression and anxiety. In just 6 weeks, his love and companionship have made a meaningful difference. Living with family, he brings joy every day, and his spotted coat inspired his perfect name: Specks.

My puppy, Specks, is facing a possible liver shunt. His ammonia and bile acid levels are dangerously high, and he's had recurring episodes of blood in his urine requiring antibiotics. He's on a special prescription liver diet, and the next step is a CT scan and ultrasound to confirm the diagnosis and determine if he will need surgery or lifelong treatment.

Specks is more than a puppy, he's my best friend and emotional support during a very difficult chapter of my life. When depression and anxiety made even simple days feel overwhelming, he brought light back into my world. Watching him fight through his medical challenges with such a happy spirit breaks my heart. He deserves every chance to live a long, healthy life, and i will never stop fighting.

Specks brought light back into my life when I needed it most. A healthy future for him would mean everything to me. The financial burden of his care is overwhelming, and every donation brings us closer to answers and treatment. Thank you for believing in Specks and helping us get him care.
