Help Chloe live her life!

Donation protected
If you know me and Chloe, you know this dog is an extension of my soul. We snowboard, hike, kayak and paddleboard together and have thoroughly enjoyed our adventures throughout her 11 years.

About 6 weeks ago, she began to limp randomly while we were out of town and it seemed to be her old age finally catching up to her as she played with younger friends. We took her to the vet who thought it was an easily fixable elbow dysplasia and that it would flare up now and again.

Over the following weeks, the limp got worse and we could tell she was in a lot of pain so we brought her back in for x-rays. Our vet “didn’t like” the way her shoulder joint looked and sent it out for further review. What came back absolutely devastated us as we learned she had been diagnosed with osteosarcoma, an aggressive form of bone cancer.

We quickly met with a local Oncologist and learned that the best way to treat this, keep her from feeling anymore pain, and to keep the cancer from spreading was to amputate the affected leg and follow up with rounds of chemotherapy.

The limp has not gotten her spirits down and she still tries to run and play with her friends, but after each play session, the limp seems to be worse and you can see she’s in pain. We want to give her the opportunity to enjoy many more years of adventures in her favorite place - the mountains.

Unfortunately, the costs associated with her treatment are beyond our financial means, and that's where your generosity can make a world of difference. We have created this GoFundMe campaign to humbly ask for your support in raising funds for Chloe's medical expenses. Every contribution, no matter the size, will go directly towards covering her medical bills, medications, follow-up appointments, and the necessary treatments to fight this aggressive cancer.

If you are unable to donate at this time, we kindly ask you to share Chloe's story with your friends, family, and social networks. Spreading the word and raising awareness can be just as valuable as a monetary contribution.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, compassion, and for being part of Chloe's journey. Your donations and well-wishes will bring us one step closer to beating osteosarcoma and giving our beloved Chloe the chance at a brighter future.

Red, Brendan and Chloe
