Atlas Medical Needs

Hey friends! Brooks and I are raising money to continue supporting our dog, Atlas, through his medical needs and testing. Here's a summary for those who haven't seen what's going on:

We found a large mass on Atlas' neck about 2 months ago. We took him to the vet several times, with lots of tests and medications, and they determined it was likely an infected salivary gland. The spot was drained but he continued to show little improvement. He went to surgery a month ago, and after the surgery slowly began improving. The surgeon admitted this may not be the end of the story, as they didn't find any cause for the infection. As of a week ago, he was doing great, but then quickly took a turn again. His swelling is the largest it has been, and the next step is for us to get a biopsy to determine if this could be cancerous, as his blood sample was inconclusive on that.

We need financial support, because we have already spent close to $6,000 and are quickly draining our savings. We understand the holidays can be a tough time to give, but any small amount will help. We appreciate you guys so much and we know Atlas does too. He has been such a blessing in our lives, and if you have met him, you know how much of a fun pup he is and how he never meets a stranger! It's been hard to see him go through this and know he is in pain and confused about all of this. We hope we can find some answers soon.
