Hi, my name is Ashley and I am raising money for a surgery that my sweet boy Bandit needs. He developed a salivary mucocele that can only be removed with surgery.

We were saving up the money and almost had enough, but then Bandit was attacked by another dog and needed laceration surgery at the emergency vet.

This happened at the apartments where we lived on a routine potty walk, and management decided that they didn't want to be liable for either of the dogs anymore and forced us to move. So, after paying the emergency vet bills and moving expenses, we no longer have enough money for his surgery.

Bandit's mass ruptured after the attack and luckily didn't cause an infection (this time), but has filled back up and we have run out of options. He is leaking a fair amount of blood from this mucocele and we are so scared that we will lose him.

Other than this rare mucocele, Bandit is a happy and healthy almost 3-year-old Australian Shepherd that loves to go on adventures and is our pride and joy.

We are working hard to recover from everything that has happened in the last couple of months, but we are struggling and have decided that we need to ask for help.

This dog means the world to me and I will be forever grateful to anyone that can help. Even if you are unable to donate, please send prayers & good vibes our way ❤️
