Help Emma Recover From Spleen Surgery

Emma was already dangerously close to losing her life once.

This sweet senior girl and her bonded companion, Casey, were surrendered to the Nicholas County Animal Shelter in Summersville, West Virginia. Confused, vulnerable, and suddenly without a home, the pair faced the terrifying risk of euthanasia. Thankfully, Beagles R Us Rescue in Indiana stepped in before it was too late.

Emma and Casey were rescued together, giving these devoted senior companions the second chance they desperately deserved. They were finally safe—but then came devastating news about Emma’s health. Veterinary testing revealed a large mass attached to Emma’s spleen. It had grown so large that it was putting pressure on her other organs. Emma needed major surgery, and her rescuers once again had to fight for her life.

Emma successfully underwent surgery to remove the mass and her spleen and is now back with her foster family, eating, resting, and slowly regaining her strength. And after an agonizing wait, her rescue finally received the news everyone had been praying for: the growths were benign and no cancer cells were found.

It was an enormous relief but Emma’s fight has left her Beagles R Us Rescue with a staggering veterinary bill that came in even higher than the original estimate.

Emma survived the threat of euthanasia. She survived major surgery. Now, she needs your help.

Her rescue refused to give up on her when she was at risk in the shelter. They refused to give up when a frightening mass threatened her health. They gave this senior girl the chance to heal, to feel comfortable again, and to spend her later years knowing what it means to be safe and loved.
