Bambi is a 2 month old Mix-Breed in Saint Paul, MN, who needs $2,000 for Cleft Palate Surgical Repair.

Bambi is an amazing Cane Corso/American Bully mix puppy. She is two months old, and when she was born she was 1/4 the size of the other puppies. She lives with my family, which is my wife, and our children (son and 4 daughters). We instantly fell in love with Bambi, and she was unable to latch onto her mother to feed, and was rejected by her mother. She has a cleft palate.

Bambi was born with a cleft palate and has never been able to drink through her mother or through a bottle. We have to tube feed her every meal, and due to her cleft, saliva gets into her nose which causes her to sneeze quite often, which requires surgery to fix. Southview Animal Hospital in West St. Paul is going to perform her surgery and they are ready to do her surgery as soon as we can.

Bambi is a member of our family, basically like a newborn baby, having to be tube fed every couple of hours, and requiring constant supervision. She is the sweetest puppy, who is suffering everyday until her cleft is fixed. She is at constant risk of aspiration pneumonia due to her cleft and having a hole in the roof of her mouth causing there to be no separation between her mouth and nose.

We are a fixed income family with two disabled members, and helping Bambi would mean everything to us. We have been trying everything we can to raise the money for the surgery, and Bambi is at risk everyday the surgery is not performed. Please Help.
