Dogs are good at hiding pain… but that doesn’t mean we don’t feel it.
I’ll be honest with you: sometimes I wonder if I’ll ever get to live the life I dream about — one filled with long walks, soft grass under my paws, belly‑up sunbathing, and running so fast my ears flap like goofy golden flags.
My doctors told Gold Ribbon Rescue that my hip is severely damaged — far worse than any young dog should face. Without help, my future will be filled with pain. But with a total hip replacement, everything could change. I could finally have a real chance at a happy life. A forever‑family future. A life where I can move freely, play gently, and grow into the carefree puppy I try so hard to be.
I’m holding onto hope. And I’m dreaming of the day my pain is behind me.
Love,
Champ
