Help Zack Save Jasper's Sweet Heart
Donation protected
Hi everyone,
My name is Zack, and this is my sweet 10-week-old German Shepherd puppy, Jasper. I rescued him from a backyard breeder who was letting puppies go far too young and without any medical care. I knew he deserved better—and I wanted to give him the loving, safe life he never had a chance at.
Unfortunately, just days after bringing him home, Jasper was diagnosed with severe pulmonic stenosis and tricuspid valve dysplasia—two serious congenital heart defects. The cardiologist told me that without surgery, Jasper may not live to see his first birthday. Even with surgery, his condition will require lifelong medication and monitoring. But with help, he could have a fighting chance at more time, more walks, and more love.
Despite everything, Jasper is the sweetest boy—he loves snuggling with his brother Jax, giving kisses, and wagging his tail at everyone he meets. You’d never guess how sick his little heart really is.
The surgery he needs costs $5,000–$5,500, and because this condition was diagnosed right after adoption, pet insurance won’t cover it. I’ve looked into every option—CareCredit, payment plans, nonprofits—but I’m struggling to afford the cost on my own. I work full time and do my best to provide for my pets, but this is more than I can manage alone.
If you can spare anything—$5, $20, or even just a share—it would mean the world to me and Jasper. Every little bit helps give this beautiful rescue pup a real shot at life.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,
Zack, Jasper & Jax
