About this campaign
Vegas came into our life in 2018 as we wanted another dog to keep our Frankie company since I worked from home. He was the wild but sweet addition we needed. My boyfriend is from Las Vegas so naturally we wanted to name a dog after his home town. Boy did it suit him well. Wild and crazy just always a good time :)
Vegas has always had breathing issues. We had his soft pallet removed in 2020 and that helped him for about 3 days. We knew we would have to do more but we didn't know what. After consulting with surgeons because he was getting worse, we discovered that he has a collapsed larynx which blocks him from getting air in when his head is down and struggles even when his head is up. He is suffocating.
He is the sweets dog in the world. He just wants you to pet and hold him all the time. When he can't breathe he runs over with so much fear in his eyes for me to help him and hold him. He is so funny bouncing around like a rabbit when he is feeling good and lives with a tiny tennis ball in his mouth for him to breathe at all times. As much as it helps him during the day, its actually super cute.
He had a cornea transplant in his left eye, right eye having to get scraped multiple times w/ treatments by a specialist, then his ear canal removed due to bad ear infections. We have maxed out our cards with over 20k in vet bills and nothing left to save him now.
