Theo is a 14 year old Labrador Retriever in Edgewood , MD, who needs $400 for Physical, Blood Work, Fecal Testing & Medicine.

Theo is Labrador Retriever mixed with a little Chow and just had his 14th bday at the end of June. I have had my big beautiful furry baby since his birth.

Theo is prone to having ear infections which cause him to drunk walk. He has been seen by his regular & emergency veterinarian for this reason. Both have suggested blood work should be done especially due to him being a senior. The rough estimate that I was given ranges anywhere from $350 to $425. Given he may have arthritis it would cost more for medications. July 11th was the last time Theo was seen at the emergency veterinarian because his hind legs were everywhere and I thought the infection came back in his ears. His ears were good, everything about him looked good and blood work was suggested again. The drunk walking comes and goes, he has good & bad days. If he does have arthritis I want him to have the medication needed for this. With the blood work at least we will know what’s going on.

Theo is not just my dog, he is my best friend, my shadow and my emotional support companion. When I leave my house he will sit by the front door waiting for me to return. Soon as he hears me pull up he starts expressing himself for at least 6-7 minutes. He has always been very loyal and protective of me. He loves being outside when it snows, sunny out and even in the rain. He is my entire world as I am his.

Unexpected trips to the vets now has me tapped out which is my reason for making this campaign and humbly asking for help. It doesn’t even have to be money. A share, even kind words would be nice.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.
