Alexis is a 9 year old Mix-Breed in Washington, DC, who needs $1,400 for Complete Dental Extraction.

Hi.. My name is Alexis, my new mommy calls me Poont Poont. My old owner passed away from covid and she took me in.. I'm 8 yrs old and I guess you could consider me a rescue. But I love my new life and home.

Poont has not been spayed and I'm not sure of all of her medical history (how recently she's had shots, etc).. I recently noticed she has extreme dental issues.. And it's steadily getting more and more severe. She is now having a hard time eating and is drooling, I even have to puree already wet food for her to be able to eat. I'm trying to get her surgery at Laurel Spay they help Low cost dental.

I'm definitely one of her favorite people now. She is very affectionate after we have built up trust. She climbs on my chest and nestles and gives very sweet kisses and hugs. She's playful and adventurous.

I'm on social security disability and I get paid once a month. While I am able to feed and cover basic needs and occasional regular vet visits. Urgent care visits are extremely costly. I have been looking into pet insurance but none of them cover preexisting conditions
