Giving for Gordon

We have a heartfelt plea on behalf of Gordon, a joyful and spirited puppy who has recently been diagnosed with a suspected liver shunt. To provide him with the best chance for a healthy life, he urgently needs a specialized CT scan followed by surgical correction.

As you may know, the costs associated with this type of medical care can be overwhelming. Unfortunately, as a non-profit shelter, we do not have the necessary funds to cover the extensive treatment that Gordon requires.

We believe that every animal deserves a chance to live a full, happy life, and with your help, we can give Gordon that chance. Your support, no matter the amount, will make a significant difference in his journey toward recovery.

To make a donation, please click here. Even sharing this message with your network can help us reach more compassionate individuals who might be willing to contribute.

Thank you for considering helping Gordon. Together, we can ensure he has the opportunity to thrive as the amazing puppy he truly is.
