My heart is breaking as my 5-year-old German Shepherd, Kylo, fights for his life. He’s been my best friend since he was just 5 weeks old. After emergency surgery to remove and rebuild part of his intestines, the next five days are critical for his recovery.

His medical bills hit us unexpectedly and have already reached $10,000. If you’re able to help in any way—even by sharing—our family would be forever grateful. Kylo Ren is home now and continuing to fight, and we are so thankful for all the love and support as he heals.
