Nova is a 8 month old American Pit Bull Terrier in Medford, OR, who needs $2,000 for Elbow Dysplasia Surgery.

Nova came to me when I wasn't even looking as I lost my dog of 11 years and hadn't been able to connect with any other dog, until my bf found her through his dogs breed who gave us Nova after a few days she as well as I got really attached, following me around, sleeps above my head so the pillows are now hers, my older female dog took right to her which had me shocked as well.

Sense the say I got Nova I noticed a limp and a bulge on her front left leg , I took her to pear blossom vet where they did 7 x rays finding Nova has elbow dysplasia in her leg which is painful that's why she limps after short walks or playing with the other dogs , I then took her to Northstar veterinary surgery and had a consultation with John Davies who then told me Nova needs surgery .

Some said just give her back to the breeder but I can't i love her when i felt id never get attached to another dog after mine passed, Nova got close to me she's super sweet , and smart . She loves other animals including bunnies, she cuddles which what my last dog did , Nova gets happy when I come home and she sleeps with me every night , our other dogs love her and that says alot!

I live on a tight fixed income, I only have 1 income, and just got my only vehicle out of the shop as well , I also have no state assistance so everything realize on my income from kids , house, unexpected emergency, I'm trying to meet everything but when it hits all at 1
