Coco is a 3-year-old Yorkshire Terrier in Washington , DC, who needs $1,750 for Leg and Pelvis Repair.

Coco, is a true pandemic dog, born on 3/13/2020--the very day the pandemic was declared. She was a birthday gift for my daughter's 8th birthday since we couldn't travel as planned. My daughter fell in love with Coco who was just 12 weeks when got her and full of love, character and personality from day 1. She's brought so much love and joy to our family and neighbors, alike.

Coco is full of energy. She loves when we get visitors and is first to greet them at the door! She loves to play chase in the backyard or when she sees her fury friends on a walk. Coco lives for car rides and enjoys the view from rhe driver seat. She loves to sleep in her beds, but finds comfort sleeping with my daughter or me at times.

Coco is a social butterfly--she never meets a stranger and if someone claims to not be a dog-lover, Coco ia destined to change their mind! Coco loves a good game a chase and she's fast too! She loves playing with all dogs, especially ones bigger than her, who seem to be enticed by her big personality. She also loves treats--her fave is salmon jerky. She's the sweetest addition to our family.

Coco was hit by a car on 6/3 and unfortunately the driver kept going. She sustained pelvic fractures and a right sacroiliac luxation and requires surgery to regain her normal life.
Seeing Coco go from a vibrant, fun-loving pup to a docile and sad baby has been heartbreaking to witness. I just want to see her happy again

This incident came an a time when I simply cannot afford to pay the costs of her care. After a loss of income in November, I'm on the road to financial recovery and trying to rebound and rebuild my nest egg. Having Coco healthy and recovering means having my family whole.
