Our sweet and beloved (and BIG) Lab, Rivers is only 2 years old. Still just a pup!  He has been diagnosed with an ACL tear and needs surgery so he can move comfortably in this life..hopefully beach and neighborhood walks, too.  
He's been called "stoic" by the vets that have seen him..so very proud and quiet and mild mannered.  Just a few of the reasons that make him so special. He is a beautiful and loving member of our family.  Obviously in pain, he limps and is confined to the house and leash.  
I purchased Pet Insurance, but it doeasn't cover the surgery until our year anniversary in March-too long to wait and see him suffer. I am a single mom with 2 children. I earn a living through teaching Yoga. We are asking for help in any amount to help pay for his surgergy.   
Thank you, beth
