Uhtred is a 7 month old Mix-Breed in Lewiston , ME, who needs $2,000 for Surgery to Open the Lower Portion of His Esophagus.

Uhtred was my Christmas present from my bf so my 2yr old boy Groot could have a playmate. My 4yr old female Tori was a rescue who has Erlichia and isnt as active as Groot. My friends dog got pregnant before she was due to be spayed. We’ve had him since he was 8 wks old. He quickly became best friends with my children and other fur babies.

Uhtred was diagnosed with Persistent Right Aortic Arch. Basically it’s a congenital anomaly where he has a tube wrapped around the lower portion of his esophagus preventing food from going to his stomach and causing regurgitation. He is on a liquid diet so his food can fit through the small opening and limited activity to prevent regurgitation and choking

Uhtred is so full of life and just wants to play but is limited. He has 2 doggie siblings, a ferret, rabbit and 6 feline siblings that he loves to play with. He provides so much love to my kids and emotional support to my daughter recently diagnosed with MS. He lives to talk and cuddle. His favorite thing to do is steal toys from Groot

Times are hard right now. Between medical bills, regular bills and groceries I’m struggling to save money for his surgery that has been estimated at 8500 not including pre and post op costs or the surgical consult that is 210
