Akira is a 5-year-old Siberian Husky in Spring, TX, who needs $2,000 for systemic fungal infections and tachycardia.

Akira came into our lives as a rescue in Missouri about 4 years ago as an adopted sister to Rebel, my other Siberian husky where we all lived in a cozy apartment together. Until circumstances had us move back to Texas to be closer to family when my dad was diagnosed with cancer. Moving to Texas though she now has a home and a large backyard and all the friendly neighbor pets to befriend and Rebel to play with.

Akira has been a ball of energy, she loves everyone. She loves going for random car rides or hikes in the woods. Being a husky she is not a fan of the heat and she lets me know it by "singing" which she does every time she wants something too. She loves playing fetch but is also content with being a couch potato. Her favorite thing to do however is to lay right next me and snuggle at bed time.

Akira might have a boyfriend that Rebel does not approve of with the neighbor dog. When she's not out with the neighbor dog she plays fetch, she hasn't quite got the hang of returning the ball yet though, then it become keep away. Being a husky she loves the snow and watching her play in her element made me smile, that and the duet of sounds she and Rebel make when they sing together everyday.

Akira's medical situation started off as IBD that was being successfully treated but likely compromised her immune system. She is diagnosed with systemic fungal infections in multiple areas of her body as well as tachycardia and acute kidney trauma that's making her a very sick dog. She is currently undergoing treatment at Gulf Coast Veterinary Specialists under the care of Dr. Clark.

The funding I would receive from this platform would be game changing. While still a drop in the bucket it would allow for the vet to continue her care from this very unexpected and life threatening illness. As of today her vet bills are $15k+
