SPECIAL NEED

Zumo is a one year old Akita
who came to ARMAC after a very bad start . With gentle nurturing from his foster home, he blossomed into one of our AmbassaDogs . Zumo attends all the adoption events and charms everyone with his gentle kisses and flirty red eye lashes. Zumo was just diagnosed with elbow dysplasia and torn ligaments in his left knee. Because of the elbow dysplasia, he tends to hold his front legs awkwardly, causing muscle cramps that make him cry out in pain. The pain is managed temporarily with drugs. With several surgeries, he will be functional and relatively pain free. The best estimates for his surgeries is $5,000.00. If everyone who reads this donates $5, $10 or more, Zumo can have the surgeries and be on the road to recovery. If you can help this wonderful young dog , please donate to his special fund. Click on the yellow ’DONATE’ button below. Make sure you specify that your donation is for Zumo. .
THANK YOU !!! and lots of kisses from ZUMO !!!!
