Our sweet Ferdie Boy has a complete ACL tear! He is 3 and a half years old and has a long happy life ahead of him of running around and we are asking for community support to relieve the financial stress this is putting on us!

The surgery itself is going to cost $3,780 and we plan to work with a PT for post-op $600. We already have paid $350 for his x-rays to confirm a complete tear, and also plan to buy a brace, and a carry system for him! We are living on a second story apartment with stairs and this is going to be a long journey to recovery.

Ferdie loves to run and play and while we are gonna have to make adaptations to his lifestyle, we still want him to live a full long life and be able to go on big hikes, some light runs and play with friends. We want our boy to be pain free and be able to do some of the things he loves! His joy is so important to us, and he bring us joy every single day.

He is quite literally our baby, and we are gonna do everything in our power to get him feeling better :) Thank you so much for contributing, sharing this post, or sending us your thoughts!
