Help Bree get the care she needs

Help Bree, a loving 1 year old dog with kidney disease, get urgent vet care, surgery & ongoing treatment to give her more time 💛

Auckland

Bree is just 1.5 years old and has been diagnosed with renal dysplasia—a congenital kidney condition that will shorten her life.

It’s especially hard as she had a bright future. She is an affectionate, loving, happy dog who greets everyone with a big smile. She adores caring for younger Pawsible Service Dogs puppies in training like a mother hen, and loves swimming at the beach, sleepovers, and her carrot toys. She truly is a joy.

Concerns about Bree’s health were first raised at 9 weeks old and she has undergone countless specialist scans, ongoing monitoring, careful management and veterinary support to give her the best quality of life. Insurance will not cover these interventions since it's congenital.

Since diagnosis, Bree’s path has changed. Instead of training to become a service dog, she now helps guide younger pups, passing on skills and in her own way.

Behind Bree is a committed community. The Pawsible Service Dogs trust and her trainer are doing everything they can to give her the life she deserves—despite financial strain in a challenging economic climate.

We’re hoping to raise $3,000 to help cover:

*Surgery and hospital care (including costs already incurred)

*Ongoing monitoring and testing

*Medications and pain management

*Carefully researched diet to support kidney health

Every dollar goes directly towards giving Bree the best quality of life, for as long as we can.

If you’re not able to donate, sharing this page would mean so much.

Thank you for supporting Bree x

I volunteer with Pawsible Service Dogs and care for Bree when she is not with her fellow dogs in training. She is part of our home and our wider Pawsible family, and we are committed to making sure she is comfortable, cared for, and surrounded by love.

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
