Nessie is a 11-year-old Maltese Mix in Fort Smith, AR, who needs $350 for Dental with extractions.

Nessie was rescued at a day old from a very bad couple. She came to me at the time of a miscarriage and became my everyday. Last year we lost my terrier to old age and I have a lab 3 year old pup as well. My fur babies mean the world to me. I'm the past 11 years, I've maybe spent 2 days away from nessie total. Me and her are very emotionally attached.

Nessie loves attention. She loves when people come over or we go out. She loves getting dressed up in her outfits and prancing around showing off. She loves Wal-Mart. She knows my daughter as sissy. I can say let's go see sissy or sissy is here and she runs to the door barking and waiting for her. Her favorite food is chicken. She's super spoiled.

I am disabled and on a fixed income. Nessie is my everything, I'm not good at asking for help but this procedure will possibly give my baby a better chance of living a bit longer with me, so I'm reaching out.

Nessie health has always been no issues till recently her teeth has gotten old and rotten due to old age. She has two that the vet needs to extract sure to severe infection. I was told that she will for sure die if she don't get this procedure, but due to old age she's at high risk under the anesthesia. Her vet is Labahn Veterinary Hospital in Fort Smith, Ar.

When nessie was a baby she would dig into her pillow bed looking for booger monsters if you told her the was one under her pillow. She has to eat her food right next and always tries to hide her bowl when she's done. She loves her bath time and being held like a baby and rocked. She is obsessed with blankies and gets new ones all the time.
