Puppy Toby is an 8-month-old yellow Labrador pup in Austin, TX who needs $2,000 for hip surgery.

Lucky Lab Rescue and Adoption heard about a puppy that couldn't walk in a Texas animal shelter and was at risk of being euthanized. We could not let that happen!

We didn't have a foster home for Toby but knew we had to save him, so we had a volunteer pick him up and get him to an animal hospital. X-rays showed he had a broken pelvis and one of his hips was a mess.

We've had two specialists review Toby's case. Both say he needs hip surgery to remove the bone fragments from his hip joint. The surgery is called and FHO.

We had a rough year with many medical dogs in need and donations are low right now. Probably due to the economy and inflation. We are struggling right now and need to raise the money first for Toby to have his surgery.

Lucky Lab is a nonprofit rescue, and no one in the organization is paid, we're all volunteers. We put our hearts and souls into rescuing these dogs and want Toby to have the best new year ahead.
