Jasmine is a 5-month-old Yorkshire Terrier in Randallstown, MD, who needs $1,100 for Orthopedic Surgery to Realign Growth Plate and Stabilize Tibia.

I have always wanted a Yorkie. My former mother-in-law had one for years. A friend informed me about a coworker she knew who breed Yorkie. After purchasing the puppy they force me to get her at 6 weeks ( just found out I had COVID) or I would have lost the puppy and my money. Three weeks later my daughter needed help with her 3 1/2 year old daughter. I am struggling to now support us all.

Jasmine was such an active little puppy. She is such a vibrant little dog. Within two weeks or coming to my home she was running up and down the steps. Her best friend is my mother's cat. They play and wrestle until the cat gets tired of her. She loves playing rough and going for runs and walks. My puppy is a joy to be around.

Jasmine is not completely potty trained. I am stuck between giving attention to a 3 1/2 year older and Jasmine. Because she came to me at such an early age I had her in my bathroom near . She will go outside to pee but comes back to the bathroom to do a number 2. She use to love jumping. She figured out how get on the dining table and jump up on my high bed.

My granddaughter grabbed her by the right leg picking her up. He her the puppy screaming then crying. She cried for about 25 minutes straight. Jasmine began hopping on three legs. I took her to the vet. She had a broken growth plate. The orthopedic surgeon stated she also has a hairline fracture along the tibia that must be surgically corrected.

My heart breaks when I see my vibrant puppy restricted to her cage because I don't want her to cause more damage to her leg. I feel helpless. I am mad about my situation. I feel like I might have to surrender her so she can get treated. My heart breaks at that thought.
