Help Save Our Sweet Charlie

Hi friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers —

We’re reaching out with heavy hearts and urgent hope. Our beloved French Bulldog, Charlie, was injured in a tragic accident last night and is now facing paralysis due to IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease). She’s only 3 years old and has brought so much light, laughter, and unconditional love into our home.

During a routine bath, Charlie suddenly jumped from the kitchen sink when i was grabbing her towel. It ultamately resulted in devastating spinal damage. We rushed her to the emergency vet, where we were given two options:

➡️ Transfer her to a veterinary neurologist for emergency spinal surgery

or

Euthanasia

We were shattered. Charlie is the heart of our family — her favorite thing in the world is cuddling with our three kids: Riley, Mason, and baby Alexandria. She is their gentle protector, snuggle buddy, and source of so many laughs. Adrian and I are doing everything we can to hold it together and make the best decision for her — and for them.

The Cost

We’ve been quoted between $13,000–$20,000 for surgery and initial hospitalization — not including the weeks or months of recovery, medications, and physical therapy she’ll need to walk again.

While that number feels overwhelming, we’re holding onto hope. We’ve set a goal of $10,000 to offset as much of the cost as possible. We know the world is full of kind people who understand the bond we share with our animals — Charlie isn’t “just a dog,” she’s family.

How You Can Help

• Every donation helps, no matter the size.

• Please share this with your network — friends, groups, pet lovers.

• And most of all, keep Charlie in your thoughts and prayers as we fight for her chance to heal.

Euthanasia is the last resort — not because it’s the easiest, but because she deserves a chance. If love alone could fix this, Charlie would already be up and running again.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,

Adrian,Holleah, Riley, Mason, Alexandria , Charlie & Lucy
