This Single Mom Rescued Her Dog A Year Ago, And Now He Needs ACL Surgery
Erie, Pennsylvania. Hannah Vogt is a single mom of 6 rescue animals, including a 1-year-old American Bully named Arlo.
Arlo was rescued by Hannah from a local shelter in Erie, Pennsylvania. At the time, he was just nine weeks old. This was her first dog out of the 6 animals she rescued.
Unfortunately, over the past few months, Arlo has been limping on his right hind leg. Hannah decided to take him to the vet, and they then confirmed that his knee had been popping in and out of place every time he walked. Sadly for Arlo, the only cure for his injury is surgery.
On February 15th, 2022, x-rays showed and confirmed that his knee was out of place and he had a torn ACL.
Arlo was then referred to a new veterinarian in Pittsburgh as this type of procedure has to be done by someone who specializes in more complex surgeries.
Hannah has set up a GoFundMe page in hopes of raising money for Arlo’s surgery.
“He is my first dog child so I hate to see him in pain. Truly any amount helps, or if you cannot donate, a share would mean so much!”
Today, there are 250 donations, bringing in over $4,000 with a goal of $6,000. “The fact that we are over halfway is astonishing! I cannot believe how many of you love and support my Arlo. Every donation, big or small, means so much to us. Thank you all again!!”

Since the post date of her GoFundMe page, Arlo’s condition has increasingly gotten worse. Hannah has been forced to create a path out of rugs for her poor pup to help assist him in moving around his home, as walking on the laminate floors bothers him tremendously.
Arlo has been scheduled at Pittsburgh Veterinary Specialty & Emergency Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on March 29th for his consultation. If all goes well, they are hoping to move forward with the procedure on the following day.
Hannah would like to thank you in advance for the amount of support she has received. You can follow Arlo and his journey on Instagram and Tiktok at Arlo.the.bullyy!
