Quiggle Is Fighting to Recover After Emergency Abdominal Surgery

Little Quiggle should be settling into her next chapter, but instead, this puppy is facing a serious medical emergency.

Shortly before being transported to Maine to join our sister rescue, Quiggle swallowed twine that caused an intestinal obstruction. To save her life, she underwent an enterotomy, a procedure in which surgeons opened her intestine to remove the obstruction. The surgical team also removed twine from her abdomen and from around the back of her tongue.

Quiggle's condition has been serious enough that her veterinarian referred her to a 24-hour emergency hospital for round-the-clock monitoring and continued care. With the possibility of additional surgery, her medical expenses continue to mount.

Quiggle needs urgent veterinary care, and we need your help to make sure she gets it.

At this time, we are still gathering information about Quiggle's condition and ongoing treatment. What we know here at Summit's Sanctuary, is that she has already undergone major surgery and needs continued monitoring as she recovers. If another procedure becomes necessary, the costs could increase even further.

As a volunteer-run rescue, we do everything we can to help vulnerable dogs and puppies get the care they need. But emergency situations like Quiggle's can create medical bills far beyond what our limited resources can cover on our own.

Will you help us cover Quiggle's emergency medical expenses?

Your donation will help Summit’s Sanctuary pay for Quiggle's surgical care, emergency hospitalization, monitoring, and any additional eligible veterinary expenses related to her treatment. Every contribution helps ease the financial burden and allows us to focus on getting this little girl the care she needs.

Quiggle has already been through so much, and we want to give her every opportunity to recover. We are doing everything we can to support her through this medical crisis, but we cannot do it alone.

Please consider donating to help Quiggle, and if you are unable to give, sharing her story can help us reach others who may be able to contribute.

Thank you for standing with Quiggle and helping us care for the vulnerable dogs who depend on us. ❤️🐾
