Vader is a 8 year old Mix-Breed in Forked River, NJ, who needs $5,000 for Hospitalization and Testing.

Vader is my 8-year-old Miniature Dachshund and Miniature Pinscher mix. Vader came into my life shortly after my husband passed away. I adopted him to keep my beloved beagle, Max, company, but he quickly became so much more. I’ve had him since he was a puppy, and for the past 8 years he’s been my constant companion. After Max passed away, Vader became my only pet and has been by my side every day

Vader was first treated at Lanoka Oaks Veterinary Center after suddenly becoming critically ill. He has severe liver disease with jaundice and has not eaten for four days despite IV fluids, antibiotics, anti-nausea medication, and pain medication. His veterinarian recommended hospitalization, and we hope to transfer him to Red Bank Veterinary Hospital for the treatment he urgently needs.

Vader has helped me through the loss of my husband and later through losing my beagle, Max. He follows me everywhere, loves car rides, sleeps beside me every night, and is happiest just being close to me. Even while sick, he still responds when I talk to him and gets excited when I pick up his leash. He isn’t just my dog—he’s my family. He adores the kids in my family and is everything to them.

I have exhausted my available credit and have been denied for every financing option I applied for. Vader is my best friend and my family. Having him healthy again would mean having my constant companion by my side for many more years
