Molly is a 13-year-old American Bulldog in Pell City, AL, who needs $300 for dental cleaning, tooth extractions, x-rays and pain management.

Molly came to us as a neighborhood rescue case. She had roamed the neighborhood for two weeks and was skittish of people approaching her. After this time frame, she became determined to live with us, in our yard, because she would watch me walk my dog, Zeke, every night. Zeke wasn't really fond of this idea, but Molly wouldn't leave our backyard. That's how she got adopted.

Molly lives with 2 other rescue dogs. They have their own room to share together. She would like to be the Alpha, especially since she has gotten a little grumpier with her teeth needing to be repaired. She loves to go on car rides and she prefers to be walked on her own these days. We have created her a nook all of her own now, to help reduce tension with one of our other dogs who is younger.

I don't have a savings plan for pet care or emergencies. I work at a lower entry-level job and am able to provide basic care for my rescue pups, but I am not able to afford surgeries or dental care of this magnitude.

She has a dental emergency of sorts, related to aging and lack of dental care. I did not realize how bad her teeth had gotten over the past few months until she got into a fight with the little dog. That's when I noticed her front teeth looking pretty weird. I thought it was a result of the fight, but the vet told me it was really the aging process. I have never had dogs with dental issues before

Molly is special because she is a survivor. She would prefer to be in a single pet home, but she's a good sport and shares with the other pets. She gives great hugs and this is one thing she can do better than any other doggo I've ever had. She's very smart and curious about things in her environment, just like a person.
