Zeus is a 2-year-old American Pitbull in Sussex , NJ, who needs $2,000 for ACL Surgery.

I originally got Zeus from my husband for Father's Day due to him losing his dog after 14 years. We were a little skeptical at first because he was so rambunctious. Now he's just a sweet boy that loves to play. He has a little brother that is one and a little sister only in size because she's 8. He loves them both and it's a small little family that they all embrace

Zeus always needs love. He needs to sleep under the blankets. He's fun-loving gets the Zoomies and is an all-around good dog. Him and his brother like to play a lot sometimes a little too rough but it's all in good fun. And he's very gentle with his sister. I also have four cats which he doesn't mind and they don't mind him.

Zeus likes so much. Everything new to him is interesting and fun. He's in all around good dog. He actually loves seeing his vet. He even lets them do his nails even though he will not let me do them.

This past Saturday was such a beautiful day. It was about 60° and the sun was shining. I decided to let them play and unfortunately it got crazy and he must have tweaked his leg. It's most likely a ACL. Unfortunately it's very common in these types of dogs I heard because they're so energetic and active. I just feel so bad now not knowing how much pain he's in. He's on sedation medication

I currently have a full-time job. My husband's job cut him to part-time. My husband is having spinal surgery next month so things are pretty tight. They are very well fed, they've had all their necessary vet visits. This was an unexpected expense that we cannot afford
