Help Save Penelope: Our Dog's Battle with Lymphoma


Hello my name is Enzo. My fiance Melanie and I are starting a GoFundMe for our 5 year old boxer Penelope that has recently been diagnosed with Lymphoma. Lymphoma is a cancer that is common in boxer breeds that cannot be cured, but can be treated with the right prescription and bi-weekly chemotherapy.

Despite her diagnosis, Penelope has shown incredible bravery and improvement due to the chemotherapy. The veterinarian at VSS (Veterinary Specialty Services) has calculated a treatment that will potential give Penelope another 9-18 months of good healthy living. Allowing our family to enjoy her and all her quirks.

The road ahead is tough, and the medical expenses are overwhelming so we are in pursuit to raise $3,500 to cover a good portion of her medical bills (the entire chemotherapy is roughly $7,000). We fortunately do have Pet Insurance through Nationwide Pet Insurance that is covering some of the treatment but the policy wont be able to cover all of her expenses.

Please consider donating to Penelope's fund. Share her story with your friends and family, let's give Penelope the fighting chance she deserves. We are immensely grateful for any support you can provide.
