About this campaign

Coming from a rough and neglectful past where she was most likely used as a breeding dog and then dumped by her owner and ran as a stray, Lacey is surprisingly sweet and kind and, above all, forgiving despite her numerous, painful rotting teeth, huge tumors and high blood pressure and high levels of protein in her urine.

Lacey arrived woefully thin due to a huge intestinal parasite burden that was negatively impacting her liver and hemoglobin. And sadly, because of this, she needed to be separated from the other animals until she was clean. But that never stopped her from impishly playing hide and seek through the deck railing with her caretakers and several of the other dogs, where it’s all love and gentleness.

Thriving on her caretakers’ love and affection, she loves snuggling in blankets, being bathed and massaged, and is easy to groom. Friendly and well-behaved at the vet, where she’s a special favorite, she’s sleeping better, and longer now, is as smart as she is sweet, and is always in tune with what’s going on around her.

Lacey has four different tumors on her body, and the two that are the most concerning are on her chest. The pendulous one is about the size of a lemon and sways back and forth when she moves. The other is a subcutaneous tumor that is growing in size daily. Although benign, they need to be removed, along with her numerous rotting teeth. Lacey must also be spayed to help prevent mammary tumors.

We provide lifetime care for animals with medical needs and rely solely on donations to pay for their vet bills. We have raised funds for Lacey’s recent lab tests and cytologies but need help with getting donations for her surgery. Please help this deserving hound. Thanks!!
