Daisy is a 10-year-old Boxer in Lowville , NY, who needs $300 for Tumor Diagnosis & Removal.

I have had Daisy since she was about 6 weeks old and everyday that I am lucky enough to spend with her is an absolute gift. Even more so since she was diagnosed with cancer. For the first 5 years Daisy was overall pretty healthy. It's this cancer diagnosis that has been an ongoing obstacle for us both. On a positive note, it has made me appreciate her more than ever.

Daisy is nonstop entertainment every single day, even when she isn't feeling well, her goofy personality still shines through. From the way she gallops through my small apartment playing with her favorite toy to the silly positions & locations she chooses to sleep in. There is certainly never a dull moment with her around!

Daisy is far from just my own personal treasure. I cannot ever go outside with her for a quick second for a simple potty break. I live in an apartment complex & the second anyone spots Daisy, or she spots them (& barks to get their attention for pets) I end up staying outside for far longer than I planned on.

She was 1st diagnosed w cancer about 5 years ago. She developed a mast cell tumor on her chest. It grew quick & it got big. It would swell & get ugly whenever she went outside and was active. She had surgery to remove it but the surgeon could not get clear margins. She has since had another tumor & a cyst removed. She now has a tumor on her head which needs to be removed.

These things never happen at a time when we are prepared. I had to use my emergency funds that I had set aside & therefore was unprepared. My credit is bad so care credit is not an option & I cannot afford pet insurance, especially with her preexisting condition.
