Bella is a one-year-old Golden Retriever in Toronto, ON, who needs $1,500 for urgent surgery.

Bella is just one-year-old, and the beautiful Golden Retriever's life is on the line. Her human mom is facing a gut-wrenching situation; she can no longer pay for Bella's medical care.

"Bella was attacked by a dog and hit by a car," Alita F. tells Waggle. "She has had two surgeries to try and save her leg. And on top of it, one of the screws from her first surgery was taken for culture and came back with the news that her leg is infected. She needed to have injections every day for seven days with an intense antibiotic to try to get rid of the infection."

After all the animal hospital bills, Alita has hit a breaking point. "I cannot financially pay for any more surgery or even an amputation because I have given every penny of credit and lines of credit to possibly save her leg," she says.

Alita is pleading for anyone who reads Bella's campaign to give to help her precious dog, who didn't deserve to be a victim of this catastrophe.

Bella used to love to go to the dog park and play with dogs. She also loved the water and going to the beach. She would join Alita at their local community garden as she planted herbs and vegetables. Bella would greet every person when they harvested the produce and gave it to the community.

"It's just she and I. She is the sweetest and kindest dog. She loves to be a pet and has to say 'Hi,' to every dog. She is extremely friendly. She always has a smile on her face, and it can truly lift anyone's spirits even when she is so sick and in so much pain. It makes me sad to write this." Alita says.
