Ginger is a 6 year old Mix-Breed in saint augustine, FL, who needs $1,500 for TPLO Surgery for a Ruptured Right Rear CCL.

Ginger is the world to me! I picked her out of a littler from a friends Catahoula Cur that had puppies with a Shar Pei/Mastiff. She is my best girl and she lives with me. Ginger is very well taken care of, I make her little homemade blueberry muffins which she loves. I have a medical plan on her with Banfield Pet Hospital for her routine veterinary needs. (Vax, teeth cleaning etc.)

Ginger has been healthy and only 2 UTIs (bladder infection) and one nail which she broken and all have been paid for and resolved. She ruptured her CCL playing and after taking her to Banfield, taking X-Rays and a Radiologist review them, it was recommended to go to an Ortho Surgeon for assessment. We went Veterinary Orthopedic and Mobility Center in St. Augustine, FL to see Dr Jay Erne.

Ginger is my baby and sleeps with me. She is so smart and she loves to talk back to me especially when she lets the loud stomping neighbor know she doesn't like it....I shush her and she grumbles and talks back...it's very funny. . She loves to play ball, frisbee, tug of war, going for rides in the car, and playing in the ocean. I brush her teeth, trim her nails and give her showers.

I already spent my emergency funds on her with the 2 UTI bladder infections, sonogram and the cost of the radiologist and x-rays. I was not expecting this CCL rupture within 3 months of the 2 UTIs. I am saving for her surgery but am a bit short of the full amount.
