Inu is our beloved 11-year-old dog and has been with my husband and me since we moved into our first apartment together. He’s truly our first baby, and has been a constant source of comfort and joy throughout our adult lives. Inu is the best cuddle buddy in the world, always there to lift our spirits and make our house feel like home.

Recently, Inu faced a life-threatening emergency after eating something he shouldn’t have, which led to a serious blockage. He needed urgent surgery and has been in and out of the vet multiple times due to complications. Just today, we rushed him back for observation because he’s not doing well. The vet says he needs x-rays with barium contrast and possibly another exploratory surgery to find out what’s wrong and help him recover.

We’ve already gone into debt trying to cover Inu’s medical bills, and we’ve exhausted all our financial options. We’re struggling to pay for his ongoing care, including surgery costs, medication, and follow-up visits. We’ve even pleaded with the vet to allow us to make payments so we can keep fighting for Inu’s health. Any support will go directly toward giving Inu the urgent care he needs and helping us keep our family together.
