Help Chanel get Broken leg surgery — NC

NC

Last Christmas, I decided to surprise my two girls with a puppy. What started as a Christmas gift quickly became so much more than that. She became a part of our family—a little bundle of joy who brought so much love, laughter, and happiness into our home. Our entire family has fallen completely in love with her. She has become a constant companion to my girls and a special part of our everyday lives. From playing around the house to simply cuddling up with us, she has brought a kind of happiness that is hard to put into words. Unfortunately, while playing recently, she jumped off the bed and suffered a serious injury to her right rear leg. She broke her leg badly enough that she needs surgery to repair it. The veterinarian has determined that she will need an implant placed in her leg to hold the bone together properly. This implant will remain with her for the rest of her life. As a family, we are doing everything we can to get her the treatment she needs. The hardest part right now is the financial burden. The cost of surgery and her medical care is more than we can afford at the moment, and we are struggling to find the funds necessary to give her the chance to heal and get back to being the happy, playful puppy we all love. She is not just a dog to us. She is family. She means so much to my girls, and seeing her in pain has been heartbreaking for all of us.

The veterinarian has determined that she will need an implant placed in her leg to hold the bone together properly. This implant will remain with her for the rest of her life. She is so special to us because she has become much more than the puppy we brought home for Christmas. She has become a member of our family. When we first brought her home, she was meant to be a special surprise for my two girls. We wanted to give them something they would love and remember, but none of us could have imagined just how deeply she would become a part of our lives. She has a way of bringing everyone together. She greets us when we come home, follows us around the house, plays with the girls, and loves nothing more than being close to her family. She has given my girls companionship, comfort, and countless moments of happiness. Her little personality has become part of our family’s everyday life. For my girls, she isn’t simply a pet. She is their friend, their playmate, their comfort, and someone they love unconditionally. For all of us, she has become one of those special members of the family that you can’t imagine your home without. That’s what makes this situation so difficult. Watching her struggle to walk and knowing that she is hurting is heartbreaking. We know she has a long, happy life ahead of her if we can get her the surgery she needs. We are fighting for her because she has become such an important part of our family. She has given us so much love and joy, and now we just want to give her the opportunity to heal, run, play, and continue being the happy puppy that has brought so much happiness into our home. ❤️🐾 The reason I am reaching out and asking for help is because, as much as I want to handle this on my own, our family is already carrying significant financial responsibilities. I am blessed to have a son who is in college, and I am responsible for helping cover his tuition and the expenses that come with supporting him while he works toward his education. At home, my income also supports my wife and our two daughters, who are in middle school and high school. Between tuition, household expenses, school expenses, and the everyday responsibilities of taking care of my family, there simply isn’t much financial room left for an unexpected expense like this.

Help Sophia get TTA — VA

VA

​I adopted Sophia from a shelter two years ago. From the moment I brought her home, she became an irreplaceable part of my family. I committed to giving her the safe, loving life she deserves, and she has brought so much joy into my home. Now that she's facing this unexpected medical challenge, I'm doing everything I can to step up for her the way she's always been there for me. Recently, Sophia suffered a tear to her Cranial Cruciate Ligament (CCL)—the dog equivalent of a human ACL tear. Because of the tear, her knee bones are constantly shifting painfully whenever she tries to stand or walk. ​Unfortunately, a CCL tear cannot heal on its own with rest alone. Without surgical correction, she will remain in severe pain, experience progressive joint damage, and lose the ability to use her back leg. ​Her veterinarian has recommended surgery to stabilize her knee joint and restore full, pain-free mobility. The total estimated cost for her surgery, anesthesia, pain management, and follow-up rehab care is $3,500. She is my daily shadow and my comfort. Whether we’re starting our morning routine or relaxing in the evening, her presence brings me joy every single day. Asking for financial help is not easy for me. As someone living on a fixed income, I budget carefully for our day-to-day needs, routine vet visits, and food. However, a major, unexpected specialty surgery like this is far beyond what my fixed income can stretch to cover. I simply do not have the financial resources to pay for her surgery on my own, no matter how much I want to. ​She gave me two wonderful years of unconditional devotion, and now that she needs me most, I am doing everything in my power to get her the care she urgently needs.

Help Binx Recover and Learn What It Means to Be Safe

Houston, TX • ThisIsHouston

This tiny puppy was found in heartbreaking condition, so thin that every rib was visible. He was covered in fleas and ticks, extremely weak, and so terrified that he tried to hide in the grass when rescuers approached. Even more heartbreaking, Binx was found chewing on the remains of a deceased dog. Nearby was a pile of bones from the dog that had already died. We don't know how long Binx had been struggling to survive on his own, but it was clear that he was desperately hungry and severely malnourished. Because Binx is still just a puppy and was heavily infested with fleas and ticks, rescuers knew he needed immediate veterinary attention. Fleas and ticks can cause dangerous blood loss and anemia in a young, already-malnourished puppy, so This Is Houston rushed Binx to Vergi 24/7 for an emergency examination and monitoring. Binx was found to be anemic, and his bloodwork needed to be closely monitored to make sure he remained stable. He was dehydrated and severely underweight, so his veterinary team began carefully rehydrating him and putting him on a controlled feeding program to help his fragile body begin recovering safely. For the next couple of days, Binx remained under veterinary supervision while his team monitored his condition and determined what he needed to recover. Thankfully, Binx was recently discharged from the hospital and is now continuing his recovery in a foster home. But his journey is far from over. After surviving hunger, weakness, parasites, and unimaginable fear, Binx now needs time, nutrition, medical care, and plenty of patience to help his little body catch up. He deserves the chance to grow into a happy, healthy dog who never has to worry about where his next meal will come from. Binx survived because someone finally stopped to help him. Now we need to help him heal. Your donation will help This Is Houston cover Binx's emergency veterinary care, bloodwork, medications, nutritional support, and ongoing recovery in foster care. Please help give this scared little puppy the safe and healthy future he deserves. 🖤
