THANK YOU everyone for helping PSD BRANDO – our HERO of the month!

WE DID IT!!!!  Because of YOUR Generosity, we raised enough money to pay for Brando’s surgery in its entirety and we have some GREAT news to share with you.

Brando is doing amazing and his surgery site is healing incredibly well. Brando’s veterinary doctor reported that his histology results did not reveal any cancerous cells in the ear canal itself, which means that the cancerous mass was likely removed in its entirety.  The GREAT news is that the tumour hasn’t infiltrated the ear canal and so Brando should not require any further treatment.

Brando’s Handler wanted us pass on a message: 

” This wouldn’t have been possible without your generous support.  Because of Ned’s Wish, Brando will be with our family for many years to come.  Once again thank you from my whole family for the gift you gave us!

Zach and Brando”

We just learned that Brando is having a bit of a setback with what appears to be an infection at the surgical site.  His postoperative sedation has worn off and according to his human partner, Brando is back to his normal self.  He has a great attitude, but he will need a few more tests and medication to address the infection.  He is now facing weeks of cone wearing to protect the wound, but surely Brando will be making innovative attempts to get it off at all costs.  

We have raised enough to cover almost half of his surgical costs, please help us reach our goal of $6000 to pay for his entire surgery.

Good news everyone!!!  Brando’s surgery went well and he is now recovering at home.  To save his life, Brando’s tumor was successfully taken out along with his ear canal.  While his inner ear structures were removed, his surgeon was able to preserve his outer ear, so he will be cancer free and will  continue to look distinguished in his golden years.  Although, Brando looks pretty bad-ass with his shaved head.  

 His human partner sent the following:

“.. Belly rubs and naps by the fire are in store for the next few weeks. 

Thank you again for the life saving support you have provided to my old partner.”

With your help we have raised $1295 of our $6000 goal, please consider supporting this distinguished hero and donate today to help pay for his entire surgery!  How can you say “no” to this face?
