Cody is a 15 year old Papillon in Arlington Heights, IL, who needs $1,000 for Testing to Pinpoint Cause of Bleeding.

I have a 15-year-old male Papillon named Cody. I got him from a pet store when I was 15 years old, making him my very first pet, and he has been my baby since 2010! He currently lives with me, my husband, our son, and our rescue lab mix, Bella, in our home in the Chicago suburbs. Cody has been a huge part of my life for so many years, and I cherish every moment with him.

Cody has been experiencing significant health issues recently. He has been refusing to eat all forms of food, experiencing vomiting and bloody diarrhea, and has lost a pound in just a week. Since he is 15 years old, these symptoms are concerning. The only thing I can get him to eat is chicken breast. He is currently receiving care at NAWS in Mokena.

Cody is a high-energy dog with a lot of spunk a cat like dog. He showers you with love on his terms and prefers hanging out on the back of the couch or under things. He LOVES people. He always seems to know what’s going on. Loyal and loving in his own way, Cody adores attention especially ear scritches. He has been my little shadow for 15 years, and is an important part of our family.

Matthew and I lost our jobs a month before our son was born, depleting our funds. Now, with Cody’s severe health issues, we urgently need veterinary care. Seeing him sick and unable to eat has been heartbreaking. We want to get him seen by a vet to get treatment.
