Age truly is just a number for Lex Peck and his sister, because at 8 and 9, they’re already business owners.

“I got an American button machine. It works super dooper well” said sister, Arianna Peck.

Lex sells intricate rocks, which is how he named his dog, Rocksy.



“We’d take him to pounds. He didn’t want a rescue, he wanted a puppy until he met Rocksy and it changed everything” said his dad, Andrew Peck.

Little did they know Rocksy wasn’t doing as well as their business. Lex Peck said the doctors described it to him as a “broken heart”. It’s a heart condition that will take thousands of dollars to fix.

“The vet was crying, i was crying, my dad was crying. They said this case is hard, whenever I go home I’m gonna need a margarita” said Lex.

The pet rocks he sells can’t save Rocksy, but they can still help. “The money I get, I like to give it to my dog so I can pay for her medical bills and all that” said Lex.

His sister pitches in too, splitting the money she makes from her buttons. “I love Roxy, and Lex does so I really want to help her.

“It’s just amazing these kids are great they’re so kind hearted and always looking out for each other” said Andrew.

Lex knows he cant sell enough rocks to save his dog right now, But he’ll use the money he makes to keep her happy as long as he can.

Rocksy needs X-Rays every three weeks, and the rocks Lex sells helps to pay those medical bills.

The procedure Rocksy needs can’t be done in the U.S. yet, and it could cost up to forty thousand dollars.
