Nohea is a 10-month-old Havapoo in Colorado Springs, CO, who needs $2,000 for Distal Femoral Physeal Fracture Surgery.

Hello, my name is Nohea which means lovely in Hawaiian. I'm not sure if I have any four-legged siblings, however, I met some pretty cool friends at the local pet store where my human family found me when I was just 2 months old. My forever home includes my dad, mom, two brothers and two sisters. I'd like to say that I'm everyone's favorite as I'm always greeted with hugs and belly rubs.

My favorite things are learning new tricks, cuddling under my humans as we watch movies,
sitting out on the deck and enjoying the warm sun in the afternoon, and stealing treats out of the cookie jar when mom isn't watching. When I need some "quiet time", you'll find me fast asleep in my kennel or on my bed near my family.

I love playing hide and go seek with my sister and chasing my brother around the house until I wear myself out. My favorite toy is a stuffed turtle that squeaks when I carry it in my mouth. Mom says it's easy to find me when I'm playing with it. When I get myself into mischief and am getting a scolding, all I do is tilt my head and flash a crooked smile. It seems to do the trick each time!

On Super Bowl Sunday we were coming returned home from picking up the pizzas. I still get car sick so I was super happy to be home. I was so excited that I jumped out of the truck and fell onto the icy driveway where I fractured my rear right femur growth plate. I was in so much pain that mom and sissy took me to see Dr. Whited at the Palmer Lake Veterinary Hospital.

Our hearts are saddened to see our rambunctious and inquisitive baby girl to being in a lethargic state.
With no emergency fund, the quote from Colorado Canine Orthopedics was an unexpected and sudden major expense for our family. Please help us get our baby healthy again.
