Boots is a 6 year old American Pit Bull Terrier in Candler, NC, who needs $300 for Diagnosis and Treatment.

I got Boots as a puppy almost 6 years ago. She was bred and I ended up keeping a pup of hers and her name is Sassy. Boots and Sassy are 2 peas in a pod and love each other unconditionally! Sassy just turned 3 & had her first litter in April this year. We kept her only male pup and named him Ghost. So we have 3 generations of Pitbulls at home. Boots is the queen bee of the house and loves belly rub

About a month ago, Boots tore one of her toenails almost completely off. I signed her up for the Humane Society urgent care clinic a few weeks back to evaluate it. They stated she likely would need to have the toe surgically drained. Antibiotics and pain meds were given as temporary treatment.

Boots is a “nanny” dog. Protector of her daughter and grandson as well as our family. She is very sweet, living and gentle, even with strangers who she hasn’t met before and they are at our home. When we are gone, she is a fierce protector of her home.

I am on disability so my income is limited. My partner lost her job and unemployment has ran out. We are seeking support to get her a visit to evaluate the paw and see what is recommended. From there, we plan to request assistance from other agencies to pay for treatment.
