Karen and Nikita are starting this fundraiser for Emily and Archie, Emily’s beloved 6-year-old golden retriever. In September 2026, Archie was diagnosed with mast cell cancer, and the news has been absolutely devastating for Emily. Archie is the sweetest dog, deeply loved, and an important part of Emily’s life. As Emily faces the heartbreak of this diagnosis, she is also trying to manage the growing cost of Archie’s care. Even with pet insurance, Archie is already close to reaching the yearly maximum coverage amount, leaving Emily with difficult expenses during an already overwhelming time.

The funds raised will go toward Archie’s medical treatment and related care costs, helping Emily focus on what matters most: giving Archie the care, comfort, and support he needs. Emily is a selfless pediatric nurse who spends so much of her life caring for others, and now she needs support for her own best friend. Please consider helping Emily and Archie during this really difficult time. Every act of kindness, whether through a donation or by sharing this fundraiser, will mean so much to them as they navigate the road ahead together.
