Frosty was rehomed to our family November 2022. We’re we’re so excited to add this guy to our family. Right away we new he had some struggles. Regurgitation after meals, heat and exercise intolerance. Sleep apnea. But the most scary part was he would go into these strange episodes where he would struggle to breath, panic and stop breathing all together, as if choking on something. Frosty is all about the snuggles. Would sun bathe all day if we let him. Loves to say hi to people on our walks. Loves to snack on blueberries and bananas. First thing in the morning he greets everyone in our household, especially grandma. He has to spend time with her, before work. we love him so much. He brings such joy in our hearts. At first look, we fell in love with Frosty, we wanted to take care of him. He loves to visit our local pet store for his goodies. Sometimes Frosty gets the zoomies first thing in the morning. Lives car rides, going to work with mom, where he makes new friends. His favorite treats are blueberries, and he will do anything to get those yummy treats. First breathing issue he had, we took him to the ER. Vet thought he had a mild allergy issue. But the. It kept happening. It was so scary. Frosty would panic so much he would soil himself.After frosty has his last breathing episode. I found a vet who works with bullybreeds.

DJ
DJ is a 5-year-old Terrier - Mix in Hermosa Beach, CA, who needs $1,769 for Cystotomy.
HERMOSA BEACH, CA
DJ has been my best friend and shadow since the moment he crawled into my lap at a No Kill adoption center here in Los Angeles back in 2015. We have not spent one day apart since. We travel everywhere together, go on hikes, road trips, and even the beach. He has been my source of therapy in times of hardship and has an infinite spirit of love to offer anyone who needs it. Our pack is DJ & myself but he gets plenty of love and attention. He loves staring out the window to watch people & dogs pass by throughout the day. DJ's 3 favorite toys are his spider (currently missing 4 of 8 legs because it has been overly loved), his Pizza with 2 squeakers so he can share and squeak together with his friends, & his Penguin that we always take to play with on vacations. The idea of surrendering DJ back to a shelter due to temporary financial struggles pains me deeply. Assistance getting DJ healthy again would not just mean he gets the necessary medical care, it also means me & my forever friend can continue a long & happy life together. DJ was seen by Dr. Yang, DVM at the Family Pet Clinic of Redondo Beach when he unexpectedly began urinating large amounts of blood during one of our walks. Tests revealed struvite type stones had formed in his bladder area. Two of these stones are too large for DJ to pass naturally & could lead to future blockage if not removed. This Cystotomy will remove all stones/crystals. As much as it annoys me when I'm in a rush, when you take DJ on a walk he has a way of letting you know that you are now on 'his' time. He will walk as slow or fast as he pleases in order to smell every leaf, flower, bush, and parking meter that we may pass along the way. As we pause to literally smell ALL the roses, I am reminded how important it is to live in the present.
