Archie is a 2-year-old Yorkshire Terrier in Bradenton, FL, who needs $430 for dental treatment.

Archie came into my life in May 2019 when he was 12 weeks old.
Out of the 5-6 puppies I looked at he was the only one who came to me and immediately fell asleep in my arms when I picked him up so it was a done deal when that happened and funny thing is I was looking for a white puppy but as soon as that sweet puppy claimed me as his we have been inseparable.

I'm retired and it's just the 2 of us, he doesn't like to let me out of his sight, he loves squeaky toys and loves to chase after them and bring them back. He is spoiled. He sleeps in bed with me and will sleep until I wake up no matter how late I sleep ( what a good boy!) He is a life saver for me, I was

I am beside myself with worry because his teeth issues bring him distress, I love him so much and don't think I could handle another loss. I am on a fixed income of only social security and struggle just to keep us fed , 2 vet visits in the past month have left me in a bind

Archie never lost most of his baby teeth when he should have, some have finally come out over the past 6 months or so ( he is 2 1/2) but some never did and now he has been having problems with infection the past month and on the second visit in a months time the Vet at Manatee County Humane Society said the problematic baby teeth need to come out because a more serious infection might not end well

Archie is typically very active and he thinks he is part spiderman the way he jumps up to catch a toy and when he chases after a toy he has to grab a nearby toy to take with him and drops that toy to pick up the toy that was thrown then runs back to get the toy he left behind, its really cute.
I got a pup on advice from relatives to help me deal with my Sons death, he has helped me so much.
