About this campaign
Lola was used for breeding and dumped by a bad person. We found her in really bad shape, as shown in the last photo of our photos. She had heart worm and was severely malnourished. We got rid of the heartworm, nursed her back to health and weight is no issue anymore! We have had Lola for 5 years now. She has an older, little sister Bella who is a 14 year old Yorkie. They are best friends.
Lola began to limp a couple months back. We took her in for tests and the vet said it was a torn ligament. There was a small lump there and they did an aspiration. It came back negative for cancer. The swelling and pain got worse so we brought her back in for a surgery consult for a CCL, only for the surgeon yo repeat the X-rays and discover a tumor. She needs to have her leg amputated.
Lola, especially given her rough start at life, is the best dog anyone could have. She is so incredibly loving and sweet. She is 100% lover. Even when her sister (4 pound Yorkie) is not so nice to her, she take sit with grace and walks away. She doesn’t like to see her sister upset either. If Bella barks or yelps, Lola comes running. She is amazing and loves everyone and doesn’t know a stranger
I have had a string of vet bills between Lolas ongoing care the last couple months, including testing and meds, her and our older dogs monthly care club fees. Our older dog also got sick in July, requiring 2 ER visits and testing so the costs have depleted all of my funds
