On September 28th, our best friends golden retriever, Arlo, was exposed to rat poison that had been placed in their backyard by a new pest control company without their knowledge. Since then, he has been fighting for his life in the animal hospital. He has already been there for three nights and needs to stay until his lab results stabilize. As of today he has stopped eating, and the vet thinks a feeding tube may be necessary. It will be a long road to recovery, but his family is holding on to the hope that he will pull through.

If you know Hannah, Taylor, and their little boy Jack, then you know their golden retriever Arlo. He is not just a dog, he is family. Arlo is the happiest and sweetest boy, the kind of dog who instantly melts your heart. He was by Hannah’s side through pregnancy, and now that Jack is older, Arlo has become his gentle protector and best friend. Arlo also shares a special bond with their other golden Winnie, who is his constant companion and partner in everything.

The cost of saving Arlo’s life has already reached $4500, and the bills continue to rise each day that he remains in the hospital. With Taylor losing his job, this has become especially overwhelming for their family. They want to focus on giving Arlo every chance to come home where he belongs, without the crushing weight of debt that comes with unexpected medical expenses.

Arlo means the world to his family. He is Jack’s best friend, Winnie’s other half, and Hannah and Taylor’s perfect boy. If you can help in any way, whether by donating or simply sharing their story, please know how deeply grateful they will be. Every little bit makes a difference in giving Arlo the chance to come home to the family that loves him so much.

Thank you for helping this sweet family and their boy Arlo fight his way back home.
