About this campaign

Mojo, my silly 6-year-old rescue pug, has endured neglect, starvation, and relentless breeding before coming home with me. Once frightened and wild, she is now a joyful, tail-wagging shadow who follows me everywhere. She brings warmth, laughter, and constant companionship, turning my quiet home into a place full of love and light. But there was a problem: A growing lesion was found on her vulva!

After major dental surgery in Jan., a recent biopsy confirmed mast cell cancer (MCT). The pathology showed no clean margins, meaning cancer wasn’t fully removed. Mojo then underwent a second, more extensive surgery at Metropolitan Animal Specialty Hospital. Tumors were found on her shoulder, tummy, & vulva, requiring a full reconstruction. Without immediate treatment, her life was in grave danger.

Mojo’s spirit remains unshaken. She leaps for treats, nudges me for attention, and radiates love despite all she has endured. Her resilience, humor, and devotion make her one-of-a-kind. With careful monitoring and overnight hospital stays, her recovery has been remarkable. Every moment with her reminds me how precious life is and why she deserves every chance to thrive.

I live on disability and the first surgery drained my all resources. This life-saving procedure cost $7,700. Time was critical, her tumors were growing fast, so I acted immediately. The surgery saved her life, but the bill still needs to be paid. Can you please help?
