Kuna is a 7-year-old Manchester Terrier Mix in Thousand Oaks , CA, who needs $2,000 for Damaged Vertebreas.

Kuna was left outside in 17 degree weather when she was just a puppy. I am highly allergic to animals but knew she was meant for us. Kuna just turned 7 years old in Oct (estimated) and she has been with us the entire time. My fiance and I have been together for almost 9 years and she is the glue that keeps us together. Kuno, in german means family. so KUNA

Kuna is the most loving, funny, and happy dog that you would have ever met. She honestly brightens everyone's days and has since day one. She is so active that running, and jumping, doing flips and spins is just her. The faster she runs, the happier she is. She comforts me, and my fiance. She truly has saved my life.

We have not been able to pay rent since May, have been going to food banks (I have severe food allergies so im eating food I cant have) No money for gas, food, car, insurance, pain meds, medications, etc.

Kuna has 3 affected vertebraes that need immediate attention. She started lifting her back hind leg last year, and overtime, it seems almost stuck now. We spent all of our wedding money, and all our grocery money trying to get answers. We also lost our jobs and we are up against the clock to save her other limbs from going lame forever

Kuna has been through everything with me and I firmly believe that she was sent here for us. I have gone through a lot of health problems, that causes a lot of sadness, and Kuna comforts me like a human. She licks my tears and would do anything to make me laugh. She can no longer get up to do those things and I know she is hurting.
