Support Koa's Cancer Treatment

Hi everyone,

I never thought I’d be in a position where I’d have to ask for help like this, but right now, I’m doing everything I can for my dog, Koa!

Koa is my 5-year-old yellow lab, and a few days ago, she was diagnosed with oral melanoma, an aggressive form of cancer. Despite her diagnosis, she’s still full of life—she spends her days swimming, chasing tennis balls, playing with her sister Evie (our 5-year-old Boxer mix), and keeping a close watch on the neighborhood squirrels.

I got Koa right after college and she has been my rock through some of the most important and difficult moments of my life. I can’t imagine losing her any time soon.

The treatment plan includes surgery ($10,000), a series of melanoma vaccine ($6,400), and possibly radiation ($10,000), totaling over $20,000. Without it, she’s been given only a few months before we will have to say goodbye.

I know there are so many people going through hardships, and I don’t take asking for help lightly. But if you’re able to donate or even just share this page, it would mean the world to me.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.
