Olive is a 9 year old Dachshund in Heber City , UT, who needs $2,000 for Life Saving Gallbladder Removal Surgery.

“My name is Olive, and I was a rescue after my previous owner passed away from Covid. I am now a trained service dog for my mom, who has Mast Cells Activation Syndrome. She can go into anaphylactic shock without warning, and I have already saved my mom’s life twice, by bringing her her epi pens. I am her official cheerleader at the gym, watching her work hard to rebuild and heal her body.”

The duct between Olive’s liver and gallbladder is partially blocked, making her high risk to have a fatal obstruction. Olive needs to have her gallbladder removed immediately, and her surgery is scheduled for later this week. It is inevitable that the duct will become obstructed if left untreated.
Her vet is confident that she will thrive after this surgery and has many more years to love and live

Olive loves to play fetch with her favorite squeaky toys and burrow under the covers to cuddle. She trots around the neighborhood with her 3” legs on her daily walks, which helps her mom get outside for fresh air and exercise. Olive brings pure love and joy to the people she interacts with on a daily basis, while supporting mom with her ongoing recovery.

This is a vet bill that far surpasses Olive’s emergency savings fund. Olive is a healthy dog and her speciality vet is confident she will thrive after this life saving surgery. We ask for, and appreciate, any contribution for Miss Olive.
