My service dog Rampage has been my lifeline for five years, helping me overcome debilitating anxiety and panic attacks. Despite my clear instructions, someone gave him a bone that has now put his life at risk.

For nine days, a large bone fragment has been lodged in Rampage's esophagus. The veterinary team has recommended immediate endoscopic surgery to remove the obstruction before it causes permanent damage. Without this procedure, he faces potential long-term complications that could require extensive ongoing treatment.

The estimated cost for the emergency endoscopic removal is $4,500. This procedure must be performed by a specialist using a scope to safely extract the bone fragment without further trauma to his esophagus.

Rampage isn't just my pet—he's my medical alert dog who detects my anxiety episodes before I'm even aware of them and has reduced my panic attacks by 90%. The financial strain of his specialized diet, medications, and now this emergency surgery has become overwhelming for our family.

Time is critical. Every day the bone remains increases the risk of serious complications. Please help me save the dog who saved my life.
