I rescued Gideon when we lost my Mom to cancer. He is 12 years young and still very energetic and full of spunk. He has Westie-tude to spare.
His little body doesn’t process calcium properly resulting in calcium oxalate crystals or bladder stones. He has been on a special diet but the bladder stones come back. Unfortunately, he will soon be having his third procedure to remove the stones.
I cannot thank WestieMed enough for helping us with this. This pup is my entire world and I would be lost without him. Thank you all so much!

Update October 11, 2024:
Gideon had surgery the first part of September, surgery went well. They removed 72 stones from his little bladder. Stitches came out 2 weeks later and he is doing great!
Thank you so much and thank WestieMed for the funds to help my little man get well!

Update February 2, 2025:
Thank you from the tip of his tail to the tip of his little rubber nose for the much needed assistance for his surgery. All is well here. He’s still a very spunky, very spoiled 12 year old grumpy man. I wouldn’t have him any other way. It’s silly but my life would not be complete without him in it. Right now he’s sleeping peacefully on ‘his’ sofa.
Thank you again!
Rikki and Gideon 🐾 ♥️
