Save Rose: Surgery Needed for Her Adventure
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Brian K, and I'm raising funds for my best friend, Rose.
Rose is a 5-year-old mixed-breed rescue who has been by my side since November 2021. She’s a high-energy, food-loving explorer who has traveled cross-country with me, hiking through national parks and discovering new places across the U.S. She’s not just a pet — she’s my adventure buddy, my hiking partner, and my heart.
Recently, the vet found a lump on Rose’s stomach. After bloodwork and an exam, they suspect it may be a soft tissue sarcoma, a form of cancer. Her white blood cell count is elevated, and the next steps are urgent: surgery to remove the lump, a CT scan, pathology testing, and post-op observation. The vet has estimated the total cost at $4,500.
As much as I want to handle this on my own, I simply can’t cover it all. That’s why I’m turning to friends, family, and kind strangers for help. Every dollar will go toward her treatment and care.
Rose has so much life and love left in her. She’s the type of dog who gets excited about every trail, every snack, and every new smell. I want to give her every chance to keep living that full and joyful life.
If you can help, thank you from the bottom of my heart. If you can’t donate, sharing this campaign would mean the world to us.
