Hi everyone,

I never thought I’d be in a position where I needed to ask for help like this, but here we are

My dog, Apollo, was recently diagnosed with a torn ACL (CCL). If you know dogs, you know this injury is incredibly painful and doesn’t heal on its own. Without surgery, he will continue to limp, struggle to walk, and develop long-term arthritis.

The recommended surgery is [TPLO / TTA / ACL repair], and the estimated cost is $3-4k, which includes surgery, imaging, medications, and follow-up care. As much as I wish I could cover this entirely on my own, it’s more than I can manage right now.

I’ve had Apollo since he was a puppy and he’s my whole world. Watching him struggle to do simple things like stand up, go outside, or play has been heartbreaking.

Any donation — no matter how small — will go directly toward getting Apollo the surgery and recovery care he needs to live a pain-free, happy life again. If you’re not able to donate, sharing this page means just as much.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading, supporting, and caring about my sweet pup
