Chiquis Torres is a 1-year-old Chihuahua mix in Seattle , WA, who needs $1,300 for Tail amputation surgery.

Chiquis was given to me by a family member who was given to her by a friend who could not take care of her. She is energetic but has always had problems with biting her tail. She is however the sweetest most playful baby. Who is really in need for some medical help that I cannot afford for the moment.

Chiquis loves to be pet. She loves cuddles, she loves to play & she loved being given treats. She is a big princess who absolutely loves attention. She always comes up to hug me when I get home & has just genuinely been such a lifesaver for me personally. I have always felt so blessed to have her, even if I had nothing else, she would be more than everything I need.

She is a cuddlebug/ love, play buddy, princess. She has a sweet but playful personality. She’s also such a protector. Anyone who got to spend time with her & saw who she is would fall in love. That I am more than sure of. She is just the best thing I have when I come home. She greets me & I am reminded of how fortunate I am to have her.

Chiquis had an issue with her tail & began biting it. Vets provided treatment & she was getting better. After treatment had been over she began bitting it again & one day she bit half her tail off. She is now on pain medication/antibiotics & a cone on her head in need of amputation for her tail. Vet said it is the best solution for her to be okay. But I cannot afford it, but don’t want her suffer,

I am making minimum wage & only have enough to pay for rent & bills & food for her & I. This amputation is not something I can afford although I know it is what’s best for her. She is my baby. And I hope to raise enough for her to finally be good again.
