Help Lucy get Enterectomy — Los Angeles, CA

Lucy is a lovebug. She came into our family's life as a foster fail from the Alta Dena fires. With each day she became more comfortable and we quickly realized we were meant to be her forever home. She is incredibly brave and resilient, having stepped out of her scared shell to reveal the playful, cuddly girl she always was. Lucy LOVES her ball, her treats, her kisses, and her long walks.

Lucy needed to go to the emergency room after not being able to keep down food for half of a day. From an initial sound with x-ray confirmation, the veterinarians told us she needed immediate surgery to address a foreign body obstruction that was causing her significant pain from her dilated small intestines.

You can't help but love Lucy. From her expressive eyebrows to her versatile tricks (circle! crawl like a bug!) Lucy is a source of endless joy for our family. After the passing of our most recent canine companion, we weren't sure when we'd be ready to be vulnerable with another addition again. But life just happens sometimes, and sometimes it's the most meaningful connection you could hope for

We needed to put our trust into the hands of the emergency vet in order to save our beautiful Lucy. There wasn't any alternative as the foreign body obstruction showed no movement and her pain was apparent. However the $11,000 hospital bill is a scary aftermath to consider.
