Hugo Needs Your Help!

We need your urgent help and compassion for our furry friend, Hugo.

Hugo is a one-year-old male Rhodesian Ridgeback who recently came into our care as a stray. Despite his challenging past, Hugo has been an absolute sweetheart and has won the hearts of everyone here at our Behaviour and Rehabilitation Centre on the Central Coast (BARC).

When Hugo came into our care we discovered that he has a cyst that extended down his vertebrae, and he urgently needs surgery to remove it. The costs associated with this surgery and the CT scan required, is estimated to be $6,000 – a significant unplanned expense at our shelter. That’s why we are reaching out to you, an animal lover, for urgent help.

Can you believe that it also happens to be Hugo’s first birthday this month? Imagine the joy and gratitude he will feel if he receives the most precious gift of all – the gift of good health! Your donation can make this possible for Hugo.

We know that times can be tough, but we believe in the kindness and generosity of our donors. Your support can directly impact Hugo’s chances of a full recovery and a bright future. Your donation, no matter how big or small, will make a real difference in his life. We urgently ask for your help in making Hugo’s surgery possible. Surgery is scheduled for Monday, so your timely contribution is crucial. Please consider donating to Hugo’s surgery fund and be his hero.

DSC 2108We appreciate your kindness and compassion in helping us save the lives of animals like Hugo. Your support means the world to us and to Hugo, and we are truly grateful for your generosity.

Thank you for considering our urgent request. If you have any questions, need further information, or would like to be updated post -surgery please do not hesitate to contact us.


Together, we can make a difference in Hugo’s life.
