About this campaign

She is the sweetest dog, if you sit on our couch she sits he her had on your thigh to show you love. She jumps up and hugs us literally!

She has the most energy when she first sees you and spins in circles to start playing with you.

Sadie suffered a severe, life-threatening emergency after swallowing an object that caused a complete intestinal blockage. To make matters worse, the obstruction caused a leak in her intestine, putting her at extreme risk for septic peritonitis—a fast-moving and deadly abdominal infection.

She was rushed into emergency surgery to remove the blockage and repair the damaged tissue. While the surgical team worked absolute miracles to save her life, her journey isn't over yet. Following her initial operation, she required intensive daily hospitalization, continuous IV fluid therapy, aggressive pain management, and around-the-clock monitoring to ensure her surgical site doesn't open or leak.

We are a family of 5 that loves her so much, and she lights up our day every time we look at her with her playful demeanor.

Because of the complexity of an intestinal blockage combined with a tissue leak repair, her total veterinary bills have quickly reached $6,800.

We have paid $4,000 as much as I wished to handle this entirely on my own, the sudden financial weight of emergency surgery and post-operative ICU hospitalization is overwhelming. Sadie is my whole world, and giving up on her was simply not an option. She is fighting so hard to recover, and I want to give her every chance to heal safely.
