Save Beni: Life-Saving Heart Surgery Needed

Donation protected
Beni Loves So Much, His Heart is Too Big—And It’s Failing

Beni’s heart is quite literally too big. He was born with Tricuspid Valve Dysplasia (TVD), a severe congenital defect that causes his heart to enlarge until failure. Without surgery, he won’t get the full life he deserves.

Beni is more than just our dog—he is family. He is the most loyal, goofy, and loving companion, always by our side, always just happy to be here. But now, his heart is failing him, and we are running out of time.

Life-Threatening Diagnosis:

Beni’s condition has already reached the severe stage. The valve in his heart is leaking so much that his heart is working more than it can handle and will only worsen. Without intervention, heart failure is inevitable. The lifespan of the disease is 1-2 years. Beni is currently 1yr 2mo old.

A Chance to Save Him

There is hope. A specialized heart surgery could give Beni the life he deserves, allowing him to grow old with us, to keep playing, to keep loving.

The heartbreaking reality is that this life-saving surgery costs over $30,000, including the procedure, ICU care, and recovery.

Why We’re Fighting for Beni

Beni’s surgeon, a leading expert in veterinary heart surgery, believes he has an 80% chance of living a full, happy life if he gets this operation. We refuse to let money be the reason he doesn’t get that chance.

Beni has spent his life giving us nothing but love. Now, we are doing everything in our power to fight for him.

Please, if you can—donate, share, or help in any way. Every second, every share, and every dollar matters.

With love and gratitude,
Julia, Earl & Beni
