Help Chief Get Lifesaving Surgery
Donation protected
Chief is a beloved 11-year-old Pitbull, huskey mixed with striking, unique eyes who has been part of Shirley and Shawn’s family for 11 years. He’s always been happiest on long road trips, playing outside, and splashing in the water with his parents and his human brother's. Chief’s joyful spirit and love for adventure have made him a cherished companion, and his bond with Shirley and Shawn and their boys is truly special—they consider their dogs as their children.
Recently, Chief began having trouble breathing, which led the family to take him to the vet. After some difficult news, they learned that Chief has a collapsed trachea. This diagnosis has been tough on the whole family, as Chief’s daily life has changed and his ability to enjoy his favorite activities is now limited. The recommended surgery is vital for Chief’s health and well-being, but the cost is a significant challenge for Shirley and Shawn.
They are reaching out to the community for support to help cover Chief’s medical expenses. Every donation will go directly toward his surgery and care, giving Chief the chance to return to the adventures he loves most. Your kindness and generosity will help Chief continue making memories with his family. Updates on Chief’s progress will be shared along the way.
