Give Boone the Gift of Walking Again

Donation protected
Boone is more than just a pet—he’s family.

From the moment we met him, we knew he was meant to be ours. We drove 10 hours to bring him home when he was just 10 weeks old, and since then, he’s been the heart of our home, filling our lives with love, joy, and companionship.
But now, Boone needs our help.

Boone’s Medical Emergency
On Friday night, Boone was his usual happy, playful self. By Saturday morning, everything changed—he could barely stand on his back legs, and the pain was unbearable. He cried, drooled, and looked at us with confusion and fear. We rushed him to emergency care, where the vet diagnosed him with Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD).

We were given three options:
1. Surgery – Costing between $13,000 and $15,000, with a 50-60% chance of full recovery.
2. Pain Management – Giving him medication and hoping for improvement.
3. Euthanasia – A heartbreaking option we refuse to consider.

We initially started with pain medication, but by the end of the day, Boone’s condition worsened—his back legs were completely paralyzed, leaving him unable to stand or relieve himself. Our only real hope was surgery, and despite the financial strain, we chose to fight for Boone.

The Financial Burden
Between emergency care, tests, hospitalization, and surgery, Boone’s medical expenses have already surpassed $17,000, with more costs expected for post-surgery care and rehabilitation.
• Emergency care costs: $3,561.56 - $4,190.04
• Surgery & hospitalization costs: $13,161.56 - $14,161.56
• Total estimated cost: $16,723.12 - $18,351.60

We are reaching out to our friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers for support. Every donation, no matter the size, brings Boone closer to recovery. If you can’t donate, please share Boone’s story—your support means the world to us.

Boone has given us unconditional love for years. Now, it’s our turn to give him the second chance he deserves.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping us give Boone the gift of walking again.
