Hello everyone. My name is Jevon. A few months ago, Pierre was diagnosed with a severe anal sac tumor during a routine checkup. Since then, the tumor has grown as we can see Pierre start to struggle going to the bathroom. We must get it removed or else we will have to put Pierre down once it starts causing a blockage, which could be any day now. I adopted Pierre when he was a puppy, and he has been a huge part of our family’s life. He’s 11 years old and full of energy. It would be a tragedy to have to put Pierre down if he can’t go to the bathroom any longer, especially since he’s still an energetic dog, and the surgery will add at least a couple of years or more to his life, according to the vet. The surgery is costly, and it would help myself, my family, and especially Pierre out if we could save his life! The funds will be going towards a surgery consultation, CT scan, and surgery. If you would like to verify his diagnosis, you can call the Scripps Ranch Veterinary Hospital or the Rancho Bernardo Veterinary Hospital. I've also attached proof of his condition below and surgery consultation appointment. We would be beyond grateful for any support anyone can provide!
