Zayne is a 5-year-old Mixed in Swannanoa, NC, who needs $1,000 for Amputation .

We were first introduced to Zayne through a photo. It was love at first sight. At that moment we knew that he needed to be a part of our family. My son was 10 at the time and my daughter was one and a half. Since that day he has fit into our family beautifully. We love him and he loves us. We could never live without this family member.

Zayne is an incredibly important member of our family. He has acted as a support dog to my son who absolutely adores him. We always joke and call him or human dog. When you look into his eyes he communicates in a way that I’ve never had a dog communicate with you before. Zayne is a gentle and sweet boy loved by many.

I am a single mother of two children. Anything would help. I do not have the financial means to cover this extensive surgery and we are not ready to say goodbye to our beloved pet.

On October 17 our beloved family pet was attacked by a neighborhood dog. The dogs are significant damage to my dogs leg causing an open fracture. We have been trying to decide what the best course of action is. This has been a traumatic event for our family and it has not been easy to make a decision. We have decided to either amputate his leg or try to have orthopedic surgery.

Zayne likes to hug. He is always there to offer himself for cuddling and he loves to go for long walks. Zayne is gentle and kind to everybody. I never knew that we needed saying until we found him. Zayne is silly and everything’s that he does makes my heart smile. Besides being a handsome boy he is a best friend to us.
