Bodie is a 6-year-old Chihuahua in Hudgins, VA, who needs $890 for Enucleation.

Bodie was a gift from my mom after I lost my senior dog. I met the breeder in another state and when he brought him to me he said I hope you have a crate for him he doesn't do well in cars. I took him and he looked at me and wagged his tail and kissed me on the nose. We rode 8 hours home with him snuggled in my lap and he did really well. He became my love and my constant companion.

Bodie sleeps with me every night. He loves his big black and white pitbull girlfriend! He's always giving her kisses. Bodie is an unusual Chihuahua. He doesn't bark much and loves everyone. He loves his treats! He still has his puppy demeanor and is such a happy little guy. He will greet everyone at the door with a waggy tail.

I'm on a fixed income and I paid everything I had but there is still a balance owing that I need to pay. There was no way I wasn't going to let him have the surgery. He's my baby and my companion and has been registered as my service dog.

Bodie was attacked by a dog and I had to ride to the emergency vets with his little eye hanging by a thread. He had to have emergency surgery to remove it. We were lucky Dr. Mancuso the eye specialist was still in the office. He was treated at Animal Eye Care of the Peninsula. She was such a warm caring vet.

Bodies favorite thing is to snuggle with me or his pitbull girlfriend. Lol. He has become my service dog as well. We have been through a lot in our time together. As well as traveling from coast to coast. Bodie has been on a train plane bus boat ferry as well as many miles in a car. He talks to me with eyes and eyebrows. He wakes me up whit nose boops and kisses.
