Link is a 6-month-old Pomeranian Chihuahua Mix in Battle Ground , WA, who needs $2,000 for Hospitalization.

Link is a sweet, loving Pomchi that was taken in from a puppy mill. The plan was to rehabilitate him, then find him a home, but we all immediately got attached, and he became family. He was brought back to good health, and has been living a happy life up until this weekend when everything took a turn for the worst. Without a diagnosis yet the estimate for care is already several thousand dollars.

Link hasn't been with us long, but he's quickly become a part of the family. We all love him dearly, but my two daughters (6 months, and 2 years), have gotten the most attached. Link never misses a chance to snuggle with them during their naps. He also enjoys going on runs with my 8 year old, and chasing him around the yard, but even when he's hyper, he'll stop what he's doing to cuddle.

We're still awaiting tests, and diagnosis. Unfortunately with COVID and loss of work, we can't afford the vet bills. We'd have to choose between our home, or the dog. My kids will be devastated.

Link came from poor conditions, but quickly made a recovery, so we thought. Everything was great for a while, then out of nowhere he started losing weight. Thinking it could be worms, he was treated accordingly. Then Saturday September 26th we woke up to vomit everywhere. He couldn't even keep water down. We had made plans to take him to the vet Monday, but ended up rushing him to the ER Sunday.

Other than my kids, Link's best friend is our German Shepherd, Odin. The two couldn't be more opposite, but they get along so well, and adore each other's company. He gets along great with absolutely everyone. There hasn't yet been any person, or animal, that Link hasn't made friends with. He is the most lovable little pup I've ever met.
