Oso is a 3 month old Chow Chow in Panorama City, CA, who needs $2,000 for Diagnosis and Treatment.

Hi my name is Desiree Marquez I am a full time college student also working part time to make pay for my schooling and my transportation. With all the stress I decided to get a new puppy to ease my mind off education and the current economy status. I then got my dog Oso who is a chow chow but he turned out it be very sick since the day I got him.

When I first got Oso he was very sick already pooping watery diarrhea , no solids. Which made it impossible to get pet insurance because of the pre existing condition. I then decided to take him to the vet who diagnosed him with coccidosis. After a week of medication his stomach began to gain a lot of fluid and he started getting fevers. We drained the fluid but it keeps returning. We need help.

When I first got Oso he was very talkative he loved to bark at my other dog who is named Lyka she is a Samoyed mix. He loved to follow her around and bark at her to make her play . He also loved to play with this snake toy I got him .

I am a full time college student and I work part time just to pay my car in order to go to shcool. My paychecks cover my car monthly and insurance, so I live off paycheck to paycheck. Vet bills were paid by my financial aid that I received from my schooling.
