The $1,000 great was used to save canine Bo’s life. Gentle giant Bo was diagnosed with a mast-cell tumor on his tail. His tail needed to be amputated and the tumor sent for biopsy. The cost of the amputation and biopsy was $1,700. The $1,000 grant made it possible for him to have the amputation, as we did not have the funds to cover the full cost. Bo is super sweet, loving and gentle. He loves kids and female dogs. He has perfect house manners and loves his tennis balls more than anything. Meet Bo: www.petfinder.com/petdetail/21921781
