Hi everyone,

I'm making this fundraiser to try and help my dog Rocky get the treatment he desperately needs.

Rocky is almost 2 years old, but he's already struggling with severe problems in his back legs. He has Grade 4 luxating patellas in both knees and hip dysplasia. Despite everything, he's still a happy, loving dog who wants to play, go for walks, and enjoy life like any other young dog.

We rescued Rocky when he was a puppy and had no information about his background or medical history. Unfortunately, his conditions appear to have been present from a young age, which means we haven't been able to find insurance that will cover the treatment he now needs.

Without surgery and ongoing veterinary care, his condition is likely to continue getting worse and could lead to increasing pain and mobility problems as he gets older. Seeing such a young dog struggle is heartbreaking.

We're currently waiting for specialist quotes, but we know the cost of surgery and treatment will be more than we can manage on our own. That's why we're asking for help.

Every donation will go directly towards Rocky's veterinary care, surgery, medication, recovery, and rehabilitation. If we raise more than is needed for the surgery itself, any extra funds will be used for his ongoing treatment and follow-up care.

If you're unable to donate, sharing Rocky's story would mean so much to us. GoFundMe has a £5 minimum donation, but if you’re able to support even the smallest amount, it all makes a difference to Rocky’s care ❤️

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any support you can give. We just want to give Rocky the chance to live the happy, comfortable life he deserves.
