Oso is more than just a dog—he’s my playful companion and the heart of our home. If you know Oso, you know how much he loves his tennis balls and how his energy brings joy to everyone around him. Right now, Oso is facing the toughest challenge of his life. After swallowing a toy, he became very sick, started throwing up, lost his appetite, and is now struggling to breathe. The vet has diagnosed him with an intestinal blockage and aspirational pneumonia. Without urgent surgery, we may have to say goodbye to our best friend, which is the last thing we want.

The cost for Oso’s surgery, medication, and hospital stay is overwhelming—something we simply can’t afford on our own. On top of that, we’ll need to take time off work to care for him during his recovery. Every donation, no matter the size, will go directly toward giving Oso the chance he deserves to keep playing, loving, and being part of our family.

We are deeply grateful to anyone who takes the time to read Oso’s story and consider helping us through this difficult moment. Your kindness and support mean the world to us, and we appreciate ANY help that is given. Thank you for being there for Oso and for us.
