Nyla is a 2.5 Year Old Chihuahua in West Columbia, SC, Who Needs $7,000 for Orthopedic Bone Fusion Surgery with Screw Implants.

I received Nyla as a gift from my then boyfriend as a means of therapy for my chronic pain. She instantly warmed my heart and became part of the family. She gets along great with her cat and dog siblings and is a very high energy pup. Make no mistakes, she loves to cuddle. Especially when my pain doesn't allow me to leave my room for days at a time. She warms my heart and keeps my spirits high.

Nyla was attacked in or near her home by another dog which lead to puncher wounds in her chest, head and paws. She received care for those wounds but it uncovered a surprise. Nyla wasn't limping due to a minor change injury. X rays show her pelvic is broken in two places. She is still able to stand and hop but has to stay heavily medicated due to her pain. The vet said surgery or euthinization.

Nyla is the queen of the castle. The smallest in the yard but all follow her lead. We nick name her cat-dog because she loves hanging and napping with the cats. She loves walking the neighborhood and meeting new friends.

Being that this is a complicated surgery only performed by a few, the cost ranges from 5 to 7k. Too much for any average person. I don't want to put down a spunky pup who still has the will to strive.
