Mr. Hippo has been my loyal friend and companion for almost three years now. He is a Chinese shar pei that I rescued from petland. I took care of most of his issues a loonng time ago, he has genetic skin, ear, and eye problems that we have been dealing with for about a year now. I always had an inkling that something was up with his rear right knee. He'd be playing, walking, getting up, and just randomly he would cry out in pain, hold his leg up, then in about 5 minutes be normal again. Well we went to the vet yesterday and hippo has two grade 2 luxating platellas (kneecaps that won't stay in place) I'm trying to raise money for his doublrle knee surgery. It's going to cost us 1800$ + so I tried out this site and we have raised quite a bit. I figured I'd post it here too, I don't expect anyone to donate since I don't really know anyone, but I figured hell its worth a shot. all funds raised through this site will directly go to his surgery and or any medications or treatments pertaining to the surgery, please do whatever you can, it will all be appreciated. Here's some pics of the little man, well kinda big man ;) Thank you, for any and all support!

If I help out, you must name the baby tarantula "Merkin". Deal or no deal?

I have been blessed with the success of my hedgehog business, so I try to help others with their animals. I hope others here will help a little too.

God I wish I could help. :( I have not been so blessed lately... ex left me and 4 kids after 19 yrs and house foreclosed...ugh. things are looking up, and I appreciate what I do have but unfortunately with leftover lawyer bills and an adult son with dental problems etc. I am not financially blessed enough to help with anything but prayers right now. Which you have throughout the whole ordeal. <3
