Velvet

Help Velvet get Knee surgery to fix patella and FOH — San jose, CA

San jose, CA

After 6 years of living with family, we finally moved into our own small apartment. Just 3 weeks later, we rescued our sweet girl at only 8 weeks old. She quickly became the missing piece of our family. She is loving, playful, goofy, and full of personality. She has brought our family endless love, laughter, and happiness. She truly is our baby and the best thing that ever happened to us. At only 1 year old, our girl has severe hip degeneration and a severely rotated/luxating kneecap. Her vets believe the hip condition may be developmental or something she was born with. She needs an orthopedic specialist and may require major surgery, including a total hip replacement and kneecap surgery. She is currently receiving veterinary care as we seek the specialized treatment she needs. She is more than our pet—she is our baby and a cherished part of our family. We only have one child, our 16-year-old daughter, and our girl has become her best companion. After waiting 6 years to have a home where we could welcome a dog, she filled our lives with love, laughter, and happiness. We cannot imagine our family without her. The orthopedic care and surgery she needs are far beyond what we can afford alone. We are doing everything we can to help our baby, but we need our community’s support. Every donation or share brings us closer to giving her the treatment and pain free future she deserves.

Killua

Help Killua get Orthopedic exam and treatment — issaquah, WA

issaquah, WA

After losing my beloved dog Randy to cancer, I felt a huge emptiness in my heart. Months later, I met Killua and his sister Bella, two rescued kittens, and instantly fell in love. I adopted them both, believing they came into my life for a reason. Killua is loving, playful, energetic, and deeply bonded with Bella. He has brought so much love and happiness back into my life. I’m raising funds for my 1-year-old cat, Killua, who is experiencing progressive loss of mobility. He has already had X-rays, blood work, and a neurological exam, but we still don’t have answers. He now needs further testing at an orthopedic specialty center. The costs are overwhelming. Any donation or share can help us get Killua the care he desperately needs. I believe God brought Killua and Bella into my life to help heal my heart after losing Randy. Killua has become family, and he means the world to us. He is only one year old, and seeing him struggle to walk has been heartbreaking. We are praying for his recovery and want to give him every possible chance to get better. I cannot imagine losing him so soon. Killua has had X-rays, blood work, and neurological exam, but we still need answers. His doctor recommended an orthopedic specialist for further testing. The costs are overwhelming. Please help us get Killua the care he desperately needs. Any donation or share means so much

Churro

Help Churro get TPLO and MLP Unilateral — San Antonio, TX

San Antonio, TX

Churro is our young, energetic Kelpie mix who came into our lives after we adopted him as a puppy from the SaN Antonio Humane Society. He is nearly 80 pounds of personality—playful, vocal, loving, and always ready for an adventure. Watching such an active dog struggle with his hind leg has been heartbreaking, but he continues to greet every day with excitement and love. Churro has been diagnosed with a luxating patella grade 4, meaning his kneecap slips out of its normal position. This causes limping, stiffness, pain, and difficulty bending or bearing weight on his hind leg. Because he is young, surgery was initially delayed until his growth plates developed. He now needs corrective surgery to restore stability and mobility. Churro is more than a pet—he is family. He is a young, energetic, affectionate dog whose big personality brings laughter and love into our home every day. It is heartbreaking to watch him struggle when he should be running, playing, and enjoying life. His recovery would give him the chance to be the happy, active dog he was meant to be. He came at a time we needed him more than he needed us. Churro’s medical needs have come at an especially difficult time for our family. We are currently facing significant attorney fees while pursuing our homebuilder over serious problems with our home. Help Churro for surgery and care he needs to live without pain.

Melvin

Help Melvin get Fluid removal/aspiration — Fort Collins, CO

Fort Collins, CO

Melvin is a wonderfully good boy. He’s slowed down a bit in his older age but still loves to go on walks and loves to play when he gets the gumption. He loves churus, greenie cat treats, tuna, and the occasional dose of catnip. Melvin showed some signs of discomfort and extreme lethargy which came on rather quickly. This coupled with decreased food intake and bathroom visits made me incredibly worried. I got him to the vet as soon as I could and they found that his heart is enlarged and he has some fluid on his lungs. We’ve begun 5 medications to combat these issues but the vet would like to pull off the liquid from his lungs and do an EKG. Now that I’ve had Melvin for 16 years it is very tough to imagine life without him. He always greets me when I get home and is always ready for pets and love. Neighbors love to give him a few pets and always remark how well he looks for his age. We’ve been through some ups and down these last 16 years but he has always been so quick to get comfortable and provide the best companionship. The initial vet visit was around $1200 which was a lot for me. I’m halfway through an apprenticeship but not quite making the big bucks. I’ve donated to Waggle before and would only reach out if I absolutely needed the help. Thank you for reading.

Shaq

Help Shaq get Intra-thoracic surgery — Kennesaw, GA

Kennesaw, GA

Shaq is my best friend. He's a 7.11 yr old Great Dane. I love his goofy, lovable, silly, protective self. Sadly, he's recently been diagnosed with a growing mass located near his ribs. He needs a surgery called Intra-Thoracic Surgery. Our own Vet doesn't perform this type of surgery that only a Specialist can do. The estimated cost will be somewhere betwen $2000 - $3000. It breaks my heart knowing that I cannot afford the costs. I'm not one to ask for help; I'm the one who typically helps others, including people and animals. But my income is very limited and I'm reaching out to others for help. I will know further details this coming Monday, 8/31/26 and will update this page then. Donations would be greatly appreciated and can be made directly to the Vet Clinic or me. Either way, this is an urgent request as he will need surgery immediately. Our Vet said the mass is intertwining itself around Shaq's lungs and that it could also develop into cancer if not taken care of ASAP. Thank you in advance for your help and prayers, which are also desperately needed. Mass that requires an Intra-Thoracic surgery. The hospital will more than likely be Blue Pearl in Atlanta, GA or UGA University in Athens, GA or Auburn University in Auburn, AL. I got Shaq when he was 9 weeks old, and he's been my inseparable best friend ever since. My protector, my funny clown, my everything. He is also my lifesaver. I miss the daily walks we used to go on. The mass has caused him to start limping and I don't dare take him on walks for fear of causing further discomfort. Shaq was born 2 days before my mom passed away from ovarian cancer. She was "my person," my go-to whenever I had good or bad news. Her passing greatly affected me. Shaq was the only one that put a smile on my face. Even though it would be 9 weeks before I got to hold Shaq in my arms, he brought so much joy during a time when I was so broken and sad. The thought of losing him is absolutely unbearable! Up until 2023, my take home pay was $100K. Life was good. Life was manageable...that is, until early February 2023 when I was part of a big company layoff. As hard as I tried to turn my situation around, it would not be unit February 2024 before I finally got another job offer. But it was at a $40K paycut. I had no choice to accept it, no other offers were coming in. I've been trying to increase my finances ever since. My biggest fear has come true. That something might happen to Shaq that I couldn't afford to take care of. He's such a good sweet boy. He's even pretty popular on my Facebook account.

Merci

Help Merci get Toxic Ingestion — New Hyde Park, NY

New Hyde Park, NY

Merci is an angel with whiskers! She likes to participate with whatever other pets are doing. If the dog takes a walk, she wants to go on a walk. Unfortunately, Merci wanted to have Ruffles flavored allergy medication and required lifesaving medical care. The delayed side effects of this allergy medicine ingestion has been ongoing eye issues. She needs three different eye drops 4x per day. An EKG exam for heart arrhythmia and bloodwork to check her liver, kidneys and platelets. Merci knows a lot of words and tries to “talk” to you by making different sounds…her own language. I work very hard, barely get a day off. I am low income and the medical bills are too much for me. I need to use what I make for groceries, transportation to get to my job, car repairs, hg

Josie

Help Josie get Luxated Patella surgery

Josie, who was adopted by my parents as a puppy and has become a cherished part of my life. Although she lives with them, I visit her frequently, and her face lights up with pure joy whenever she sees me. Josie is our 18-month-old Pomeranian who’s currently undergoing surgery for a luxated patella (consistent knee dislocation) The surgery involves a specialist cutting a deeper groove for her knee cap to rest in so it won’t dislocate anymore. Orchard Veterinarian Care has deemed this a severe condition that requires immediate attention, but it comes with a hefty price tag of $3,500. Josie is always excited when I come visit and usually leaps for joy and would get the zoomies prior to her knee problem. We will be caring for Josie when she goes for her surgery on September 9th and during her rehabilitation for 8 weeks. This is an unexpected and significant expense. We didn’t anticipate this situation, and it’s even more so because we’ll need to travel over two hours to get Josie to a specialist. Consequently, we’ll need to book a hotel so we can stay nearby.
