<div>The fundraiser I always knew would come, but hoped it wouldn't! 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>In Feb 2025, I found out Ozzy Pawsborne had thyroid cancer. 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Here is a small part of his story:

</div>

<div>In June 2014, I went to Chicago Animal Care and Control to meet a dog I had seen on their social media. 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>While walking the aisles, I would pass this sweet, black pittie. He was in an end crate, and stared at me SO HARD I had to stop in my tracks to back up and take note of him.

</div>

<div>His card card read Moby. Shy. Takes time to warm up. 

</div>

<div>He was the only dog that was silent. He was so hopeful, and his eyes were filled with love, confusion, and pleading. 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I continued to visit the one I was there for - I'd spend 30 mins with her, most of which she wanted to play with a ball.

</div>

<div>I asked my volunteer, Melissa, to grab Moby - she noted the same thing on his cage card, shy. Takes a minute to warm up.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The second she walked in the run with me and dropped his lead, he made a beeline to me and hopped in my lap. He turned to me and gave me a TON of kisses, then fished an empty water bottle from my bag. He happily chomped at it in my lap, obviously content as can be. It was love at first sight for both of us.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>"Who's it gonna be?" Melissa asked, absolutely knowing the answer already. I didn't even need to say it.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>June 9, 2014 Moby became Ozzy Pawsborne.

</div>

<div>Over these years, Ozzy would not only completely change my life. He would save it - more than once. 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Ozzy is my heart dog. I simply would not be here as I am today without him - not just mentally/emotionslly, but physically.

</div>

<div>Ozzy taught me patience and understanding. He taught me the importance of clear and respectful communication. He taught me unconditional love in ways I had never known it before.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Ozzy is truly my reason for everything. He is one of my soul mates. He is my world.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We have graciously received financial help from the Live Like Roo Foundation, but the current price tag is far outside of either of our abilities.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Ozzy has bilateral thyroid tumors - thyroid cancer in dogs is rare as it is, but bilateral tumors are even more rare.

</div>

<div>The removal of these tumors will require a multi day stay at the vet while they monitor various levels that will need to be managed by supplements for the rest of his life.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The funds raised here will partially go to cover travel expenses and some visits we have paid for out of pocket, but the great majority will be directly given back to LLR so they can not only help with Ozzy, but with so many other dogs who need their help.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The financial goal on here will be adjusted as we reach milestones.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Keep an eye on the updates - I'll be including some fun gifts and stuff for donors 

</div>
