Help sweet Beet get the treatment he needs for his tumor

Stanley Point, Auckland

Our sweet boy Beetle has recently been diagnosed with a tumor affecting his brain and spine. This has caused him pain, discomfort and some heartbreaking neurological symptoms — he’s very wobbly on his feet, shakes, can no longer manage stairs or jumping, and he doesn’t understand why.

Despite all his struggles, he’s being very brave and still trying his hardest to be the happy little guy we all know, he still loves his treats, and we’re doing everything we can to try help him feel comfortable.

To move forward with the right treatment plan, Beetle urgently needs an Mri — but the cost is significant (upwards of $7000). We’re reaching out for support to help cover this crucial step in his care.

Any contribution, no matter the size, would mean the world to us and to Beetle. Thank you for being part of his journey.
