Bruno's New Hip

Donation protected
Ray and Ingrid have dedicated their lives to helping others. Ray has been a firefighter for over 36 years and Ingrid was a paramedic and firefighter for eight years until a medical issue forced her to retire. 
Now it is our turn to help them, because they would never ask for it themselves. I asked Ingrid if we could organize this fund to help Bruno.  

Their beloved three year old German Shepherd Bruno needs his hip replaced. Bruno is the sweetest boy around, loves all dogs or people he meets and is very talented Dock Diver, but his life is on hold right now because he can barely walk. At first, Ingrid and Ray thought he injured himself, but he was not getting better. He is constantly trying to reposition himself to get some relief from the constant pain, but nothing works. After extensive diagnostics and exploring all avenues, Bruno's only option is surgery plus intense physical therapy. 

Unfortunately this may not be his only surgery. Bruno may end up needing the other hip replaced in the near future. I’m humbly and respectfully requesting your help. Every penny counts and thank you  in advance on Bruno's behalf for taking the time to donate, share or even just read his story.

Thank you,
Stef & Rob on behalf of Ingrid, Ray & Bruno
