Bobby has been a part of my family for seven wonderful, adventure-filled years. Throughout all the change that comes in life—breakups, new babies, marriages, and loss—Bobby has always been a steady rock, excited for life, always wanting love, and the best reason to get outside.

Bobby has endured a devastating knee injury where both of his ACLs are torn. It requires two surgeries, followed by physical therapy. He is otherwise healthy, and having these surgeries ensures he will get to run, haul lumber, play fetch, and get to see my four-year-old son continue to grow.

Bobby is the heart and soul of our home. We rescued a kitten on the road three years ago, who still sees Bobby as his mother. We also have a two-year-old husky, Leeloo, who cannot go hardly a minute without her Bobby.

We hope that our community’s generosity can help fund Bobby’s surgeries and aid in his recovery. Any contribution, big or small, is extremely helpful.
