My poor pup

He broke his elbow. $1000 to amputate, or $3000 to operate.

I can barely afford rent right now.

I've had him since he was 8 weeks, and he'll be 15 yrs in September.

He makes me heart happy and calms my soul. But he's also a massive source of aggravation and frustration 🤣

For the past few years, I've made and cooked his food as he developed acute pancreatitis and has to be on a super low fat diet.

He (tries!) to put me to bed, and forces me to get up early. He climbs under my blankets with me and sleeps up against my legs.

We go for a couple of walks a day, sometimes for an hour or so. He never complains. But then, once we get home, he absolutely crashes and naps!

I can't imagine my life without my little shadow, but I just can't afford this. I've tried to talk to the vet about a payment plan, but they have no such options.

I might have to give him up 💔
