I'm Brendan McLeod, Texas game developer. I'm raising money for radiation treatment to save my dog, Pullo, from cancer.

Pullo was rescued as a tiny puppy. Over the 10 years he’s been with me, he’s been the best thing in my life. He’s happy, patient, and fun to be around, no matter if you’ve just met him or if you’re an old friend.

A couple of months ago, I lost my job unexpectedly. In the middle of my job hunt, Pullo started having severe daily nosebleeds. After a barrage of tests, exams, and long waits for results and analyses, doctors found an enormous mass in his nose that's corroding the tissue and giving him difficulty breathing.

I've got a new job now, but over the course of being unemployed, I've spent nearly everything I had as a safety cushion in order to get Pullo to this point. The path forward looks good: We've met with a radiation oncologist to talk about an aggressive plan that sounds like it should help restore his quality of life and give him more years with us here on Earth.

This procedure is looking to be pretty expensive.. This GoFundMe will cover the funds for Pullo’s new CT scan to give the doctor a precise target for the radiation therapy, on top of the higher-end treatment that will prolong his life.It will also help cover the internal medicine and oncology procedures that got us here.

Pullo's gotten me through some of the hardest times in my life. He's a sweet boy who's everyone's best friend. I want to do everything that I can to give him the help he needs. I appreciate any help that you can give, too.
