Moon is a 13-year-old Beagle Mix in Fresno, CA, who needs $868 for Dental Cleaning & Extraction.

I was 13 when we got Moon; she was unique from the beginning. She is our childhood dog living at home with my grandmother, mother, younger sister, and me, and she has never left our side. My cousin called her Moo (like a cow) when she was born, but when we took her home, my younger sister started calling her Moony, so we added the "N" at the end! She also got a younger brother three years ago!

Moon loves couch surfing, literally! Even at her current age, she zooms across the living room at high speed, scaling the sofa and loveseat. If you open a package of cheese from the kitchen, you'll find her standing in front of you in a matter of seconds! She loves being swaddled in a mountain of blankets and makes the best cuddle buddy for movie nights.

Her zoomies will always put a smile on your face, especially when you're having a bad day. Although she's tiny, she won't hesitate to beat up her younger (even though he clocks in at 60 pounds!). She is a hunter at heart and will stalk the gophers in the backyard waiting to attack. So don't be shocked when she brings her latest kill inside; she considers it a gift and will wait for your approval.

We first noticed she had blood on her paw. We thought it was a cracked nail, but we came to find out that the blood was coming from her mouth. So we took her to the pet hospital where they told us that it was her teeth. The vet told us that she would need dental cleaning and extraction because her teeth are so bad.

My family struggles to make ends meet and rely on gov assistance for food. The bleeding won't stop, & that energetic spirit has disappeared since this started. We'd do anything to get that back. She has more years in her, she deserves to live them out happy and healthy.
