❤️ Mike has survived a lot. He shouldn't have to lose Sage, too. ❤️ Can you help?
When Mike brought Sage to Options Veterinary Care, he wasn't expecting good news.
He had found several lumps on the belly of his beloved 6-year-old Belgian Malinois and feared the worst.
Mike is a senior, a veteran, and a devoted dad who has been through more than most. After recently experiencing homelessness, he's finally getting back on his feet and into stable housing. Financially, though, every dollar still matters.
Walking away wasn't an option.
Dr. Brad examined Sage and discovered multiple mammary masses that needed to be removed. The treatment plan included surgery to remove the masses and spay Sage at the same time—giving her the best chance at a healthy future.
Earlier this month, Sage underwent surgery.
The good news? She did great. ❤️
She's now recovering comfortably, thanks to a community that believes pets deserve care regardless of their family's financial circumstances.
The total cost of Sage's care exceeded $900. Thanks to financial aid, a large portion has been covered—but $350 remains.
Can you help us erase the rest?
Your donation doesn't just help pay a veterinary bill. It helps keep a beloved dog with the family who loves her. It gives a veteran one less impossible choice to make. And it reminds families facing hard times that they aren't alone.
Every gift—$10, $25, $50, or more—brings us closer to covering Sage's care and allows us to continue saying "yes" to the next family that walks through our doors needing hope.
