Chase is a 11 year old German Shepherd Dog in Linesville, PA, who needs $2,000 for Left Rear Leg Amputation.

Chase cane into our lives when she was about 6 weeks old. We found her through a local breeder as a puppy so she could grow up with my children. She immediately attached herself to my oldest (who was 4 at the time) and they were practically inseparable. She lives up to her name as she loves to chase toys, rabbits and chickens, and she is always chasing after someone in the house, even at 11.

This past weekend, while helping work in my parents back yard, Chase got run over by the rear end of a work truck and her back hip is now so displaced the only option to correct it is surgery. Euthanasia is out of the question, she is much to healthy and active a dog, even for an 11 year old large breed to even consider putting her down. The Vet Hospital is Western Reserve in Pierpont, OH.

Chase is the sweetest girl who loves attention, she loves and is loved deeply by her family of two boys and my dad who has grown to depend on Chase to keep him active and she brings so much piece of mind that where ever my family is, they are safe. Chase is content to play with all the kids, or just relax with on the porch after a long day.

I am not exactly proud to say I am a single mother of 2 boys, 3 cats, a rabbit and Chase. Emergency hip surgery is something I cannot afford. My parents are on a tight budget as my dad had to be medically retired from his job and my mother works for the public school system.
