About this campaign

I have a great little girlie named MojoDoozi, Mojo for short. She is a 5-year-old Pug, a rescue we found neglected &starving in the upper Calif. desert. She has had puppies & was used for breeding. She had no training whatsoever & little social skills, but she has proven to be an able student & loves everybody & every dog!For the last year, we’ve been monitoring a growth on her vulva that’s

getting larger & now has its own blood supply. Dr. Bliefer @ Rose City Vet is concerned that if it’s not removed soon, it could become more serious & harder to treat. It needs to be surgically removed & sent to the lab for cancer testing.If it turns out to be cancerous & continues to enlarge, the vet may have to remove the entire vulva to get clean margins. There is very little healthy skin

around the area. It would be a major, invasive surgery. As it is, she has a recessed vulva (partially tucked into her body, as you can see in the pictures), which has contributed to the many UTIs she has had. We’re hoping to avoid anything this extensive so she isn’t disfigured & alter the quality of her life. Photos taken 1 yr apart shows it's growing. I'm 75, can't find work since the pandemic &

struggle to get by only on Social Security. I've delayed car pymts/utilities just to keep up with daily costs. The stress debilitating. But the surgery is urgent, & I simply cannot afford it on my own. Please, any amt is welcome &will help the quality of her life.
