Help Our Dog Recover from Chainsaw Injury

Donation protected
Hi everyone,

Today turned into a nightmare I’ll never forget.
While my neighbor was cutting down a tree with a chainsaw, my dog ran up — likely trying to protect me — and in a split second, the chainsaw sliced his mouth wide open.

His jaw, tongue, and mouth are badly torn. The vet said he needs emergency surgery immediately or he won’t survive. The cost of the surgery, treatment, and recovery is $5,000, and I’ve already rushed him to the animal hospital. I’m doing everything I can, but I can’t afford this alone.

Please — if you’re reading this and can help, even $1 makes a difference.
If you can’t donate, sharing this post could help save his life.

My dog is my family. He’s everything to me. He didn’t deserve this.
I’ll be updating this page with photos and medical updates as we fight to save him.

Thank you for being here and for anything you can do to help.
