Tugboat Needs Your Help for Crucial Surgery

Hi friends, family, and kind strangers

I'm reaching out today with a heavy heart and a hopeful spirit. My beloved dog Tugboat recently tore his CCL (the canine equivalent of a human ACL), and he’s in a lot of pain. He’s struggling to walk, let alone run or play like he used to. Surgery is the only real option to get him back on his feet and out of pain, but the cost is more than we can manage alone right now.

The estimated cost for Tugboat's CCL surgery, post-op care, and recovery essentials is estimated at $6000. I’ve started this GoFundMe to ask for any help you might be able to give. Whether it’s a donation or simply sharing this with others who care about animals.

Tugboat has been my loyal companion, emotional support, and source of joy for a few years. He’s gentle, goofy, and always quick with a tail wag for everyone he meets. It breaks my heart to see him hurting and unable to enjoy his walks, his toys, or even his favorite spot by the window.

Every little bit helps. Whether it’s $5, $50, or just a share, it all means the world to us.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read Tugboat’s story. Your support brings us one step closer to getting him the surgery he needs to live a happy, pain-free life again.

With gratitude,

Jason, Stephanie & Tugboat
