Coco Terry is a 14-year-old Shih Tzu in Mt Vernon, NY, who needs $2,000 for heart disease treatment.

Coco was a gift to my daughter Sade... I surprised her with Coco after a long day at work and getting lost on the train, I finally made it to the pet shop. When I brought Coco home Sade was upset that we didn't get a chance to pick up the puppy to only find out that the puppy was on my lap waiting to come into her new home. When she realized there was a puppy on my lap she cried.

Coco brings so much joy to my families life. She became one of the children, Coco is 14 yrs old and I pray for her every day. When I come home from work Coco meets me at the front door waiting to give me loads of love. Coco gives love to everyone in the house and loves belly rubs and for ears to be massaged.

I love Coco so much she just had surgery which was sudden and to come home with her breathing heavy to which we have learned it is a heart disease the finances are not available but she needs the treatment in order to maintain a healthy life.

Coco has been diagnosed with a heart disease and is being treated at Veterinary Emergency Group and she will need to follow up with her primary care dr in the morning for heart meds which is Scarsdale Animal Hospital. Coco has been very healthy and maintain her annual dr visits. I pray for her every night and ask God to protect her and keep her healthy

Coco is very special to my family, I taught her how to give kiss on the nose... When she was a puppy we took her everyone she even went to dinner with us at Red Lobster.... we would give her the famous biscuits. She traveled with us everywhere and enjoyed the road trips. She loved for me to chase her around the house and I would say mommy is going go get the booty and she would pull her but in.
