Macie is a 9-year-old Bichon Frise/Miniature Poodle in Monroe, MI, who needs $805 for Mass Removal and Dex Suppression Test.

I adopted my little Min Poodle/Bichon Frise from our local humane society. She was dropped off at the shelter 1 hour before I arrived. When I saw her nose poking through the cage bars, I just knew I had to adopt her! I was absolutely head over heals for her! I found out her owner passed away while filling out the application to adopt. Her name was ZsaZsa but to me she looked like a Macie

Macie is 9 yrs old. She gets along great with everyone, Including my daughters pit mix, my mom’s schnauzer and the cats. She absolutely loves my great grandchildren. Because Macie is older, she really doesn’t play. I haven’t understood why yet though. She gets super excited at mealtimes, Loves to go outside for a little bit as she doesn’t tolerate heat well at all.

I’m on SSI. My income is small. I’m saving up for Macie to have a wheelchair because she has a pinched nerve in her spine and by late afternoon to early evening, she will no longer walk and scoots on her bottom. I really need the help for her tests and surgery.

Macie may have Cushing’s & needs an 8 hr for it. She has hair loss, excessive panting, always thirsty, reduced activity (could be why she doesn’t play) & just recently treated for an upper respiratory infection. She also has tumors in her abdomen that need to be removed and sent off to the lab. Dr Rob Comanescu is her veterinarian at River Raisin Vet Clinic in Monroe, Michigan.

I’ll never forget when I heard Macie’s first bark. It was almost like a chirp. She can be a bit bossy when she wants me to pick her up. It’s quite funny, because I love to hear her bark and be sassy. She’s so adorable while she’s making her bed with her puppy cover, pulling it with her teeth and fluffing it with her paws.
