Tank is a 4 year old American Pit Bull Terrier in Arvada, CO, who needs $2,000 for Bilateral TPLO.

We adopted Tank from the animal shelter in August of 2023. The shelter gave him such an appropriate name, we didn't feel a need to change it. Tank is a little more than 80 pounds of pure muscle and love.

Recently, Tank was playing with the ball outside. He was playing a little to hard and tore his Right CCL. About a week later the same happened with his Left CCL. Luckily he had already been scheduled with Liberty Animal Hospital for a unilateral surgery. They took more X-rays and confirmed a second CCL tear. They were able to schedule him for a bilateral TPLO surgery.

Tank has some of the best qualities for a dog of his stature. Most of his time is spent snuggling as close to dad as he can, acting like a lap dog. In the car he will sniff in the drivers ear to ask for the window down, he can start to get sassy if he’s not smelling the world go by.

Tanks surgical cost was not a factor in whether we were going to get the help he needed. We found the vet with the lowest cost for this procedure in the area and was able to temporarily cover with a Care Credit card. We hope to subsidize some cost before getting him a loan.
