Give Luna a Second Chance: Donate to help for CCL Surgery

Hello my name is Michael, and this is Luna, my English Labrador, who just turned 3 years old.

Sadly, our celebration was bittersweet. While running and playing, she tore her CCL. Luna is more than just a pet; she is my best friend and my constant companion. As a registered emotional support animal, she brings joy and love to everyone around her. Luna is filled with an infectious spirit and boundless affection, always eager to be by my side. She joins me in everything I do, from running and hiking to car rides, visiting family and friends, and more.

However, Luna now faces a crucial moment in her life. Her torn CCL requires a surgery costing between $6,000 and $7,000. As a single father navigating a difficult divorce and caring for my 9 year old son most of the time, I'm struggling to rebuild my life and credit. These financial challenges make it impossible for me to secure a loan or a care credit card. I've already invested in a costly leg brace and have taken her to the vet, who has provided NSAID medication for temporary relief. Unfortunately, these are not long-term solutions.

Luna is limping significantly, and cannot run at all. Her opposite rear legs CCL is at risk of blowing out due to over use and then Luna’s life will be sadly cut immensely short as she will not be able to walk. the longer we wait the more arthritis sets in. This is no quality of life and we are very so devastated and broken over this, let alone Luna being in pain.

I am reaching out for help to raise the funds necessary for Luna's surgery. She has so much life and love left to give, and I am determined to do everything I can to ensure she can continue to live her life to the fullest. Any assistance, whether it's a donation, sharing our story, or both, is deeply appreciated. Words cannot fully convey my gratitude for any support you can provide during this challenging time.

Thank you all so much,

Michael and Luna.
