Bella is a 10 year old Labrador Retriever in Locust Grove, VA, who needs $3,000 for Lipectomy.

I adopted Bella when she was one year old. Little did I know she had heart worms, which I found out at her first visit to the vet. There was a chance she couldn’t survive the treatment, but we went for it and she survived and here we are nine years later in need of a surgery.

Bella has been seen most recently at paradox animal Hospital in Locust Grove Virginia. She had some simple lipomas that we have followed for years, however in the past year have grown exponentially and she is in pain and having difficulty walking. If she doesn’t get this surgery soon, there will only be one option for her not to suffer. She started showing signs of pain in the past 2 weeks.

She is the strongest, sweetest and hungriest girl I know. She is a watch dog too:) She lives to eat (a lot like me) ! She love to go for walks, and to keep my feet warm at night. She talks to us when she wants something, and recently I learned she suffers silently, please someone help merge her this surgery.

We have had a mold issue in our home and have been displaced twice in the past 2 years. We are now renting an apartment which we moved into 2 days ago and paying all the bills here plus rent- and the bills at our house , including the mortgage .
