Help Bubba Run Again

Hi my name is Bubba and I am a 7-month old Golden Retriever or so they say. My parents sometimes call me Bubby and my grandparents refer to me as the happiest dog alive, or “Rollie Pollie” because when I greet them, I just can’t control my wiggles. But lately my wiggles have been painful, and mom and dad are greatly concerned. Today was one of the worst days ever. My mom had water coming out of her eyes like the sky on this rainy day. It only started after they took me to that place that they spell out as V-E-T. They say I have something called hip dysplasia. Must be pretty bad because my mom and dad seem pretty worried. I think the dysplasia is why my legs don’t work right anymore. I seem to struggle with the simplest things like fetching my favorite stick…which happens to be all of them. Or chase my green ball on the prettiest place on earth, It’s called the park. Or run on the beach with my friends, I really miss my friends…What I’ve really learned from living on earth is that typing with no thumbs is really difficult, but chasing my ball shouldn’t be. I’m writing this because the doctors say that if I don’t get surgery before my first birthday, by my second birthday all of my favorite activities will be a distant memory. Apparently what I need is surgery to correct my hind legs, but it’s pretty expensive. So I am here to ask all of you to help me get back to my old self. Any donation is greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you to all that have contributed, we are so grateful for the love and support in order to get Bubba back to his best self. Here are a few photos of the past 7 months of Bubbas life!
