Aloha, my name is Chad. And this beautiful little pup is my families number one source of smiles. His name is Mango. Or as we call him "little dog", "little boyzee" or my go to " lil Boise idaho". He's a 7 month old French pin(frenchy/mini pincher). He lights up faces with smiles and happiness everywhere he goes. Since the day we got him, he's never left my side. Quite literally. Inseparable. Im haunted with heart ache .The last 20 years of my life have been saturated with death. My wife and I eloped because of all my,what would have been best men, had passed away. The only sure thing I've ever known is that if I loved you unconditionally. If myself and another had unwaivering loyalty to one another, and have genuine companionship, then at some point. Sure as the night Is black. I swore I would never get a dog again. But of course my god wasn't finished tormenting my soul. So he blessed me with this angel. Mango. The second his leash got handed over to me,it was an instantaneous bond. He understood that I was his person,and he was my forever puppy. He followed me everywhere that I went. He followed me on every fruit harvesting expedition. He watch patiently at the bottom of every tree climbed and stayed in high alert for any intruders lol. He would wait patiently on the couch for me to come inside for the night. He slept on me every single night, and had an obsession with cuddling with his pops. Whether I woke up at 7:00 a.m. or 11:00 a.m. as soon as I open my eyes and said my first words I'll grab my phone he would hop right up immediately lick my face and tell me good morning with all his enthusiasm. I couldn't think of a better way start a day or end of the day then receiving his love. His instincts were amazing. He knew too be a little protector from the first day that I got him. He spread so much love and positivity everywhere that we went. Every single person that he saw as he walked through any store, he would shake his tail with so much force his entire butt would shake. It almost made him fall over. It was literally as if every single person that passed by us in public was his long lost friend,and he wanted to show how much he missed them. He is a never ending source of smiles and laughs. I took him every single place that I ever went. He didn't really enjoy riding shotgun and when I first got him he liked to burrow right underneath my heels with his head wedged under either the gas pedal or the brake. But as time went on,he had to be on my lap whenever we drove. He only felt safe and calm when I was holding him tight to my chest. A few days ago my worst nightmare came true. We live on one of the most unsafe,reckless driver saturated roads on this island. Pure blindspots. My little guy got the zoomies and ran blindly into road, and right under the tire of an f150. It all happened in slow motion. The yelp he made keeps echoing threw my head. It haunts me.I lost it. It looked like he lucked out as far as dodging death but he dragged his legs. It broke my heart. To make things worse then person who hit him started to stop,but sped away like a coward. I couldn't even get myself together to help get him in the car. I layed on the floor of the car and spooned him. Told him everything would be OK,and that i was sorry for failing him as my tears soaked his coat. He persistently dragged himself until he rested fully on my chest as my back was to the floor. When we received news that he wasn't paralyzed we were thrilled. But it turns out that his pelvis is shattered. And his femurs,rightwhere they joint together with the hips., are broken. He hasnt been able to make a bowel movement due to the restriction of the hole in his pelvic area.The only surgeon is on Oahu And the surgery alone is 15,000. We paid around 1700 just for the initial examination and medications. Ill have to fly him over to oahu. Stay the night. And then a lot of adtercare expenses as well. But im selling my dirtbikes and one of my vehicles for that. Its 15000 upfront for his surgery due to the extent and location of thevdamage.Last night we packed our family into the car and headed down to the vet where mango had stayed overnight to be monitored with the understanding that we were being forced to have him euthanized. I would literally sell every possession that I have to keep my best friend alive but unfortunately right now our family is in the middle of moving on the first of the month among other very untimely Financial situations. When the doctor walked into the room she informed us that we could keep mango on some pain medication and try and see if he could recover at all and potentially live out a decent life. Knowing that if things worsened or if he was in pain that at that point we would make the decision. I know that this is a complete long shot. I've never had to do anything like this before but we were just figuring that we would try everything we could to try and save our pup. I know that this is a tough time economically for everyone and that everyone has their own things going on in their lives as well. Which is why I really struggled to even decide to put one of these together. Anything helps. Whether it's $1, It genually means the world to me and my family. This is just a last shot hail Mary attempt let mango live out a life of adventures. No matter what thank you for taking the time to read this. Please share if possible. If anyone knows me, they know I cherish the times I get to help others when they fall on tough times or bad situations. Life is hard. Times are harder. Aloha to you all.

P.s- I'll figure out how to either upload the invoices and vet qoutes/paperwork or I'll post in comments
