Lucy is a 13-year-old Border Collie Mix in Spokane , WA, who needs $800 for Mass Removal.

Lucy is a rescue that came into our lives 13 years ago. She loves to play frisbee, snag dryer sheets from the dryer and doggy treats. She has 3 doggy sisters and 1 doggy brother along with 4 kitty sisters and 2 kitty brothers. We all love her so much. We want her so badly to get the care that she needs.

Lucy's job is to protect our property from coyotes. She loves to play with her sister and never leaves her side, even while sleeping. She tells us what she needs by perking her ears up and tilting her head. She'll be the first one to snag treats from you, watch your fingers. She also loves to roll or rub against anything or anyone that smells good.

To Lucy, everyone is her friend. For some funny reason, she won't drink water unless is comes out of the water faucet outside or if it has ice in the bowl. During the winter her favorite thing to do is eat snow and ice. Goofy girl, every time she thinks there is food, she comes running. Show her a frisbee, she's ready to play.

Lucy has high liver enzymes and may need to be treated for possible cushings disease. She also needs to go through a three hour testing before she can have a very large skin tag surgically removed off of her leg.

Being on SSI, it is very hard to come up with the finances to pay for any of the procedures that need to be done. Without Lucy in our family, we would not feel complete. With help we would be able to help her be more comfortable and happier until her final days.
