I never thought I would be here asking for help like this, but I can’t go through this again.

This past year has been devastating. I’ve lost three of my dogs. One of them, Nico, passed away after we waited too long to take care of a dental issue. At the time, we thought we had more time. We didn’t. That regret has stayed with me ever since.

Now I’m starting to see signs in my dog Zeus, my Shih Tzu, that feel all too familiar. He’s licking more than usual and his breath has a strong odor, which makes me believe something is going on with his teeth. It may be early, but I refuse to ignore it and risk losing him the same way.

I’m taking him to South Pointe Animal Hospital to get checked as soon as possible.

I’ve always taken care of my dogs and made sure they had what they needed. Right now I’m in a difficult financial situation and I can’t cover the cost of the visit and possible dental work on my own.

I’m asking for help so I can get Zeus the care he needs before it turns into something serious.

Every donation will go directly toward his exam, treatment, and any dental procedures required.

If you’re able to help, thank you from the bottom of my heart. If you can’t donate, even sharing this could make a difference.

If anyone prefers to help directly through the veterinarian, I can provide that information.

I just want to make sure Zeus is okay and doesn’t suffer because I waited too long again.
