Emma is a 5-month-old Labrador in Baraboo, WI, who needs $200 for a spay and vaccines.

Hello. I live with my Mom (Nancy) and Tubby (my Tubby Cat). On April 1st, Emma, a black lab was born with 4 other puppies. She was the smallest of the others. She could not stay with her Momma, so we took her home, Upon arriving, she was quite a handful. She wasn't big on the word "No". We were able to buy her many chewing toys, including her favorite toy, "Lambchop".

She is a very loving puppy. Right now she had to go live with brother. He has her brother there, Radar. The two get along famously. But, before that, she got along with both me and Mom. She fell asleep at Mom's feet everyday around 9am. She played from 6am until 9am, with me playing tug of war, and fetch. She loves a Kong, where I put peanut butter in the hole.

Mom is on social security, while I'm on SS Disability. We really need this operation. Due to our limited income, we are having trouble saving, plus coming up with money with her shots. Please help with this task. We want her to have pain pills after the surgery!

I had spinal fusion surgery, and Mom has trouble walking her because she gets so excited going near poles, trees, and bushes. We have to get her spayed, because we're afraid her brother will try to make babies. Plus, we believe in fixing a dog, especially when she is almost 6 months, a month from now. Puppies shouldn't populate. She would get the operation at Oxford Vet Clinic where Tubby goes.

I think what makes me happy is she is so loving. She does come after you when not given enough attention. That was before she moved in with my brother and his wife. Going after meant running and jumping at us when we were sitting in our recliners. After a while I would go by her food, handing small handfuls to her, and she would gently eat. It was really cute, letting me know when she full.
