Hello family, friends, and pet lovers. My heart is heavy as I write this. My sweet dog, 5 month old puppy Bruno, is in a life-threatening situation and urgently needs surgery to survive. I never imagined I’d be in a position to ask for help like this, but I’m reaching out because time is running out—and Bruno means the world to me. He’s already in pain from his neuter on 7/10 and continues to be more in pain with the obstruction in him and it hurts me seeing him like this.

Bruno was recently diagnosed with giardia(a hard parasite to get rid of) and has an obstruction in his intestines cause no bowel movement, that needs to be removed because it has already damaged 6 inches of his intestines that now need to be removed. He hasn’t eaten in over a week and continues to throw up every hour. The vets have told me that without immediate surgery, he has no chance of survival. The cost of the procedure, post-op care, and medication is estimated to be around 3,500 which is more than I can afford alone.

Bruno is more than just a pet—he is family and my baby. A constant companion, emotional support, and a source of unconditional love. It breaks my heart to see him in pain, but I know there’s hope if we can raise the funds in time.

Please consider donating if you’re able—every dollar makes a difference. And even if you can’t donate, sharing this page means the world to me. Thank you so much for your kindness, support, and love.

ps. He was adopted from a shelter by me.

With deep gratitude,

Lila & Bruno
