Help Spike Get the Surgery He Desperately Needs

Help Spike Get the Surgery He Desperately Needs

Spike has been through more in his short life than most dogs ever will — and now, he needs our help to finally be pain-free

This sweet 2-year-old Yorkie mix was found on the side of the highway after being hit by a car. His hips were severely displaced, and he required **double femoral head ostectomy (FHO)** surgeries — one in March and the other in April The procedures involved removing the head of each femur, as his hip sockets were no longer viable Just a few weeks later, he was neutered — **3 surgeries in 3 months**

Despite everything he’s endured, Spike is full of love and life But his foster family began noticing signs that something wasn’t right... He often limps, struggles to walk, and sometimes cries out in pain

After further imaging and an orthopedic consult, the heartbreaking truth was revealed: Spike’s original surgeries were not successful. He now has painful bone spurs in both hips — sharp bony growths that are stabbing into his tissue and causing daily discomfort

Spike is currently on **3 medications** just to help him move and play — but these are only a bandaid The specialist confirmed that he needs corrective surgery on both hips to live pain-free ❤️

The estimated cost for his surgery is **$5,000–$7,000** . Following surgery, early mobility and physical therapy are extremely important to ensure a good functional outcome. Any extra money raised for Spike will go towards psychial therapy appointments. Every single dollar helps!
