Hey everybody, we know it seems like Oliver is the very picture of brindle-colored health, but we want to share with you that sadly, Oliver is rapidly going blind and needs to have surgery by the end of the summer to remove his cataracts. We already know how we’re going to get him to the pet hospital (by telling him he’s really going to his first baseball game this time) but paying for the surgery is the real challenge. We’ve sadly watched as Oliver has started to bonk into things, especially at night and it’s gotten really difficult for him to play fetch, which is his most favorite thing in the world. Recently the vet said that he can probably only see shadows now.
The pre-surgery, surgery, and follow up visits will end up costing about $6,000, so we hope to raise that much, but we are starting with a lower goal to give us a better chance of reaching it. We need your help! Just a few dollars would mean so much to us.
Oliver has only just turned seven, so he is in prime shape for cataract surgery. We don’t want to make the little guy live over half his life totally blind, especially when his ridiculous antics bring us all so much joy. Oliver has been working hard for your money for years now - he does something new literally every day for our enjoyment. If all of Oliver’s fans pledge just $5, we’ll have this money raised in no time. Plus, we have fun prizes available for every donation level!

Sir Uno was found by my mom under a shed with his sister. His sister had died before she could get help. My mom took him home and he was covered with fleas and ticks so she did everything she could to save him. My mom was thinking bout giving him away but she fell in love with his face and couldn’t do it. We have 3 dogs already and she didn’t want another one. I’m in college so when I came home i fell in love with him, so I had to take him. Now he is almost 2 months and he’s happy dog. I’m glad my mom saved his life. I love my Sir Uno…

He saw the dog during a trip there last month and it quickly caught his eye because it was openly abused on the streets. Now, he’s trying to bring the dog to the U.S. and trying to raise awareness about aniimal abuse.
