Daisy is a 3-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier in Charleston, SC, who needs $2,000 for ACL Surgery.

After my long time companion and service dog Jade died my wife and I went to the animal shelter and Daisy rescued me. She was born in July of 2020 and I got her in November of 2020

Daisy has a bed on the floor of the bedroom but most of the time I pick her up and put her in bed with me where she promptly takes over. She loves the beach and playing in the surf.

There are a total of 4 dogs in our household (one person per dog). Her buddy is Kurt, my son's Jack Russell Terrier. Before she got hurt they would run around the back yard tackling each other Daisy absolutely loves the water hose but will not get into the kiddy pool we have set up for the dogs.

Daisy started limping in July of this year but we don't know exactly when or how she injured herself. She was diagnosed with a torn ACL and surgery will be performed by Dr. Hill of All Creatures Veterinary Clinic here in Charleston.

I am a disabled vet who is not working. The $4049.70 for surgery is way out of my reach at this time. The only other option besides surgery is to leave her be and treat each symptom as they arise (pain, inflammation, etc.). After surgery she will once again be able to play.
