About this campaign

Myla was originally going to be our son's dog. He was going into the marines and got her for us to train while he was at boot camp. He ended up getting an honorable discharge and moved back home. When he was ready to move out Myla was already a part of our pack and she stayed with us. She loves to boss around the grandkids and keep them in line! Myla knows over 500 words and sign language!

Myla has been diagnosed with mammary carcinosarcoma. She has already had the surgery to remove the tumors. A week after the surgery she popped her staples while going potty. The incision was then found to have 2 different infections. The site was debrieved and treated for the infection. After 3 weeks of wound care she is all healed up. Now the tumors are back. There is hope though with treatment.

Myla is such a wonderful sweet girl with a heart of gold! Her favorite thing in the world is going to work with mom. (I work at a nursing facility.) She loves to interact with the residents. She is really tuned in to feelings of those around her and often lends a loving paw to grieving family members.

We have already spent over $4000 on Myla's vet bills in the last month. The treatment she needs will cost an additional $12,900-$15,300. We just can not afford all of that without help. We have exhausted all of our savings and are taking out loans but it isn't enough. We can't just give up on her! She is so happy and such a wonderful friend to all her residents!
