Jesse is our beloved chocolate Labrador, full of love, energy, and the joy she brings to everyone she meets. But over the past few months, we’ve noticed she’s struggling more and more. Simple things she once loved—running in the park, jumping for her favorite toy, even walking around the garden—have become painful and difficult.

After numerous vet visits, we learned the heartbreaking truth: Jesse has severe hip dysplasia, and the only solution to give her back a happy, active life is a hip replacement surgery. The surgery is quoted at £10,000, a cost far beyond what we can manage on our own.

Every week, Jesse bravely attends hydrotherapy to try to ease the pain, but it’s only a temporary relief. We can see the frustration and sadness in her eyes when she can’t keep up or play like she used to. She deserves better—she deserves a life without pain.

We’re reaching out to friends, family, and kind-hearted animal lovers for help. Every donation, no matter how small, brings us closer to giving Jesse the happy, pain-free life she deserves. Please help our sweet girl take the first step toward walking, running, and playing again. Also you can follow Jesse's journey on tiktok by following her @Jessethechocolab.
