Help Rocky, The 3-Legged Boxer Dog

[DiFabio]

Man, almost $6,000. I'm sure you guys will make it and he'll keep his leg.

Good luck man.

It's actually closer to $8,000. I just happen to have $2,000 cash saved up already.

Thanks.

Suki, my maltipoo, insisted on contributing. Good luck to Rocky!

I will be making a donation tonight after work. Some freaks members donated to my dog when we thought we were going to have an 8 thousand dollar surgery so I know what it's like.

Just made a donation bro, I know how expensive it can be to get help for your pets...and it breaks your heart to see them suffer. I really hope everything works out Have a Merry Christmas

Man, I'm sorry. I hope you get everything you need. We would help but we're about to go down the rabbit hole with Zoë. Looks like the seizure was the cause of something more.

My thoughts are with you.

So sorry to hear about Zoë. You have both my sympathy and my empathy.

Should Rocky's fundraiser actually exceed the goal, I'll be the first to contribute it to a Zoë fund.

[Crimsonbob]

I'm always giving money to charities so i popped a few bucks your way and goodluck and all the best

 

[IrishJedi]

Thanks again, guys. Hope everyone is having a Merry Christmas season.

 

[The Ween]

$1K !!!!!!!

 

[IrishJedi]

$1K !!!!!!!

Yeah, that's so great. At this rate I think we can definitely raise the funds necessary before it's too late.

Very thankful for all the support already, as is Rocky-Dude.

 

[furystorm]

Contributed twenty bucks Carl. Recently lost my beloved Kaiko, and have two new pups resting beneath me as I type, so it's the best I could do right now.

Hopefully, you can contribute some knowledge to me about building an R2-D2...

 

[IrishJedi]

Thanks man. Sorry to hear about Kaiko, though.

And no worries... I'll share R2 building knowledge to fellow Freaks any time.

 

[IrishJedi]

BTW, Should we reach Rocky's goal, any extra funds would go towards his rehab and related medication. Beyond that, all proceeds will be donated to Atlanta Boxer Rescue.

 

[The Ween]

Irish, would he benefit at all with a prosthetic? Maybe take the pressure off the other leg?

 

[IrishJedi]

That's actually something we're looking into, yeah. The problem is the damage to the existing leg is already done, so it's a race to get the shoulder rebuilt before the tendons and ligaments completely tear. Then it would be too late to save the leg.

The good thing is his rebuilt shoulder will be at least 2-3x stronger than it ever was... so he probably wouldn't need any extra support. But I'm definitely looking into that as well because it'll make things even easier for him, especially when he's older.

Besides, how can I not do everything possible for this loveable clown?:
