Support Gumbo's Life-Saving Surgery

The following message was shared by my best friend and Gumbo's mom, Madison. ❤️

Dear friends and animal lovers,

While visiting family in Louisiana, my beloved Chihuahua, Gumbo, was involved in a tragic accident when he was hit by a golf cart. The impact has left him with a herniated intestine and a pre-pubic tendon tear, for which he will undergo emergency surgery on Monday to save his life.

Anyone who's met Gumbo knows he's not just a pet; he is a cherished member of our family. He has brought immense joy, unconditional love and snuggles, and endless laughter into our lives. It breaks my heart to see him in so much pain, and I am determined to do everything in my power to give him the best chance at recovery.

Unfortunately, the cost of the necessary surgery and hospital stay is $6,500+, which exceeds our financial capabilities as we are currently paying for our other pup, Maverick, to undergo chemotherapy for lymphoma.

Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a tremendous difference in Gumbo's life. The funds raised will go directly towards covering the surgical expenses, 4+ day hospital stay, post-operative care, and any additional treatments required for his recovery. Our sweet baby deserves a chance to bounce back to his lively and playful self.

We understand that not everyone can donate, but your support and well wishes mean the world to us. We will be forever grateful for any assistance you can provide in helping us give Gumbo the fighting chance he deserves.

With sincere gratitude,

Madison & Gumbo
