Autumn is a 9 year old Mix-Breed in Bronx , NY, who needs $7,000 for Mastectomy.

Autumn was given to me as a puppy. She is a beautiful dog who has just turned 10 years, and currently lives with me in my apartment. Right now, our family situation is dire and we need to get her situated because she is licking the tumor and I'm afraid it'll get infected.

She has a tumor on her chest the size of a small golf ball. It is being monitored, but I've been told that it was not cancerous. She needs major surgery to get rid of the mammary glands and the tumor, so it'll never happen again. The hospital we take her to is VCA Hospital, where they've explained the surgery she needs is over $5,000.

Autumn is a feisty, stubborn but sweet and loving dog. She greets everyone who comes at the door, and showers them with kisses and love. She's obsessed with the toys she receives and will do anything for a treat. She's very food motivated.

I'm currently unemployed, and actively looking for work. I just got my Master's degree and thought that once I was able to find work I'd be able to pay for the surgery.
