Help Zeke, Our Brave Pomsky, Get Life-Saving PDA Surgery
A Fundraiser by Mama's-Gona Rescue
Dear Animal Lovers and Supporters,At Mama's-Gona Rescue, our mission is to give every dog a second chance at a happy, healthy life. One year ago, we rescued Zeke, a charming 1-year-old Pomsky with a fluffy coat, sparkling eyes, and a heart full of love. After months of care, we were thrilled to place Zeke with a wonderful forever family who adores him. But now, Zeke and his new family need our help.Shortly after adoption, Zeke’s family discovered he has Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA), a serious congenital heart condition that requires urgent surgery. Without it, Zeke faces the risk of heart failure or a tragically shortened life. We’re launching this GoFundMe campaign to rally our community and ensure Zeke gets the life-saving care he deserves.
What is PDA?
PDA is a heart defect where a blood vessel fails to close properly, causing abnormal blood flow. The good news is that surgery can correct this condition, giving Zeke the chance to live a long, joyful life filled with playtime, cuddles, and tail wags. However, the procedure and associated care come with a hefty price tag.
Why We Need Your Support
Zeke’s surgery, diagnostics, medications, and follow-up care are estimated to cost $7,000-$9,000. While Zeke’s new family is devoted to him, this unexpected expense is overwhelming. As the rescue that saved Zeke, Mama's-Gona Rescue feels a responsibility to step up and support him and his family through this challenge. Every dollar raised through this GoFundMe will go directly to:
Specialized PDA surgery by a veterinary cardiologistPre-surgery diagnostics (echocardiograms, X-rays, etc.)
Post-operative care and medications Follow-up visits to ensure Zeke’s recoveryZeke’s Journey
Zeke is a bundle of energy and affection, with a personality that lights up any room. Despite his condition, he loves chasing toys, snuggling with his family, and making everyone around him smile. When we rescued Zeke, we promised him a bright future. Now, we’re asking for your help to keep that promise.
