Zues is a 10 year old American Bulldog in Stockton, CA, who needs $1,500 for Tumor Removal Surgery.

Zues came into our lives as a puppy, born on July 4th. He was a gift for my brother, and we've had the joy of having him for the past 10 years. I suggested the name " Zues" because, from the moment I saw him, it just seemed to suit him perfectly—and the name stuck.

Zues has developed a tumor in his private area, and it’s currently bleeding without any signs of improvement. We’ve taken him to the vet, but unfortunately, the cost of surgery is beyond what we can afford. We’ve learned that the tumor is due to sun exposure—because Zues has a white coat, he’s more vulnerable to sun damage compared to darker-coated dogs. We did not know about this.

We've had zues for 10 years.Despite his current health issue, Zues is still full of life and energy. He’s always been a sweet, gentle giant, never aggressive and always loving. My kids have known him since they were born, and he’s grown up alongside them as their constant companion. The thought of giving him up to a shelter is heartbreaking.we want to do everything we can to help him.

My brother, Zues’s owner, lost his job at the moment, and while I’ve offered to help, I can’t afford the full cost of his surgery. That’s why we’re asking for any assistance—whether it’s through donations or sharing our story. Every little bit would help.
