Bear, our beloved dog, has always been a source of joy and comfort in our lives. Recently, we received heartbreaking news: Bear has been diagnosed with kidney failure. This means he now needs regular IM injections of fluids to help extend his life and keep him comfortable. The journey to this diagnosis was not easy—Anne has already spent a significant amount on a vet bill just to find out what was wrong, and the costs for his fluids and medical supplies are ongoing and separate from that initial fee.

The funds raised through this campaign will go directly toward Bear’s ongoing treatments, doctor visits, and the special foods he loves to eat. We also want to be prepared to give him the best care possible when the time comes for his end-of-life needs, including cremation. Every dollar will help us provide Bear with the comfort, love, and dignity he deserves during this difficult chapter.

We want to thank each and every one of you from the bottom of our hearts for your generous donations toward Bear’s care. Because of you, we will be able to cover his vet appointment costs, medications, treatments, and ultimately his end-of-life care. During such a painful time, your kindness lifted an incredible weight off our shoulders and allowed us to focus on what mattered most—loving Bear and being there for him. We are so lucky to have Bear in our lives. His little tail wagging has touched more hearts than we ever realized. He is living his best life surrounded by people who love him completely, and that is something we will always be grateful for. Thank you for your compassion, your support, and your contributions toward his care. Your generosity means more to us than words can express. Bear is deeply loved, and thanks to you, he was cared for every step of the way.
