Save Rocky and Brooklyn's Lives

Hi, my name is Calvin, and I’m reaching out during one of the most difficult moments I’ve faced as a dog parent.

My two dogs, Rocky and Brooklyn, became seriously ill within just hours of each other. It started with Rocky. He began vomiting violently, had repeated episodes of watery diarrhea, and collapsed in exhaustion. As I prepared to get him to an emergency vet, Brooklyn, who had been fine just moments before, suddenly had explosive diarrhea followed by vomiting almost immediately after his brother.

They are both being seen by Modern Animal, and based on their symptoms, the vets believe it may be something contagious like Giardia, Parvo, or Clostridium. Both dogs will need diagnostics and possibly treatment including specialized medications, fluids, and dewormers.

Right now, neither of them is eating. I’m doing what I can to keep them hydrated and stable, but without help, I won’t be able to move forward with the full testing and care they need. The cost per dog is estimated at $450 or more, and I simply don’t have it.

The funds raised through this campaign will go directly toward their diagnostic tests, medications, fluids, and any supportive care needed to stabilize them and determine the cause of their sudden illness. Anything raised beyond the goal will be used for follow-up treatment and recovery support.

I'm currently in a financial transition and wasn’t prepared for this kind of emergency. But I refuse to sit back and do nothing. Rocky and Brooklyn have been by my side through everything. Now it’s my turn to fight for them.

If you’re able to help, even $10 truly makes a difference. If you can’t donate, please consider sharing this with someone who might. That alone could change the outcome for them.

Some of the photos I’ve shared include their dog tags, which have my number listed. I kindly ask that you only text if you’re reaching out for a direct update about the dogs. Public updates will also be posted right here.

❤️‍ And as a thank you, anyone who donates $50 or more will be named an honorary godparent to Rocky and Brooklyn. You’ll receive a personal thank-you and regular updates from the boys.

Thank you for reading, for caring, and for keeping Rocky and Brooklyn in your thoughts. We’re not giving up.
