Hi everyone, my name is Meatball! I was Mama’s service dog, and my favorite things in the world are playing soccer, cuddling with my brudder, and spending time with friends. I’ve always tried my best to take care of my mom and make her smile every day.

But recently, I got a big hurty. The doctor says I need surgery on both of my back legs so I can walk and play again. I still feel happy and want to chase my ball, but Mom looks so worried. She’s been doing everything she can to help me, but the surgery and recovery are really expensive.

If you can help, even just a little, it would mean the world to us. I just want to get back on my paws, play soccer again, and see my mom smile like before. Thank you for reading my story and for caring about dogs like me. ❤️

Love,

Meatball (and Mama too)
