Help Ariel & Nick with Rowan's Emergency Vet Care

Rowan went missing for 36 hours along the sandy river; when we were finally able to find him, he had suffered blunt trauma to his body and had a fractured front leg. We think he may have fallen somewhere along the bank of the river. He was shivering with labored breathing but so happy to see us; he wagged his tail and limped right into our arms. Since then, he's been on the road to recovery.

He spent three days in the ICU, where he needed a procedure to remove air from around his lungs, oxygen, an IV, and multiple X-rays. He will need to be transferred to a surgery center for orthopedic surgery on his front leg. He is now home and resting awaiting surgery.

We would love help recovering from this traumatic event. 10% will be donated to Waggin' Tail Search and Rescue, an incredible non-profit that was instrumental in helping us get our boy home.

Thank you to everyone who has helped thus far; we are so grateful. We'll be posting updates on his recovery on this page.

With love, Ariel, Nick, Piper, and Rowan Piazza.
