Elsa is a 6 year old Dachshund in New Orleans, LA, who needs $7,000 for Hemilaminectomy.

Elsa came into my life from a litter of pups in a box! A few weeks prior my dog, Peanut, 14 years, unexpectedly passed during a dental surgery. Elsa was a ray of sunlight in my grieving dark. She was 6 weeks old. Elsa lives with two other doxies, Daisy and Bella. Elsa settled in so well she was soon running in charge of her sisters, who are both 14! Elsa lives in New Orleans in a bayou cottage.

Elsa was diagnosed with IVDD 6 wks ago. She went down fast. She is incontinent & her back legs paralyzed. She is on strict crate rest but I sleep with her and her sisters on the floor in a human dog bed at night so she won't be sad! She is on meds & trying acupuncture & red light therapy Crescent City Vet is Dr., The hospital is South Paws Veterinary Surgical Specialists,Mandeville, La.

Elsa loves any squeaky toys and destroys in minutes! Toys are still making her happy in her crate, the only thing perking her up right now. Elsa loves kisses on her little warm head and will try to "talk" to you when she gets them. Elsa loves snuggling in any blanket as you can see from the pics. Elsa loves sunning in the garden with her sisters and she listens when I sing to her. My sweet baby.

This is sudden unexpected expense. I live paycheck to paycheck. Elsa is only 6. I can't imagine her life cut short by this unfairness,or my life w/out her. She is my child, I have had her since a baby. She doesn't understand the pain she is in. Please help me save her life.
