Pasha is a 10 year old Pug in Waren, RI, who needs $1,355 for Mammary Mass Removal & Spay.

Pasha came into my life 10 years ago when a friend visited with her. Pasha wouldn’t leave my side—she chose me. We live in a small apartment with friends who are like family and their 2 little dogs. I’m disabled, and after 11 months in rehab—including nearly 7 weeks in a coma—the longing to hold and walk my precious girl again was the driving force that pulled me back to life and brought me home.

Pasha has a mammary mass that was biopsied, and the vet found suspicious cells. She advised waiting for an oncologist to confirm, but surgery is needed to remove the mass and spay her at the same time. Through Rhode Island Community Pet Project, she’ll also have a small airway procedure to help her breathing — three surgeries in one day to give her the best chance at comfort and health.

Pasha is sweet, gentle, and full of love. She leans into you to say “I love you,” and still plays like a puppy with her pink bunny. She’s obedient and loves to sit in the morning sun on the step, watching the world go by. I missed her pug snores during my 11 months away—it broke my heart. She owns my heart. With her, I feel safe in a way only pure love can bring. She’s why I keep going every day.

I’m disabled and live on a very limited fixed income with no cushion for vet costs. Pasha’s biopsy showed suspicious cells and surgery is needed soon. With your help, she can get the urgent care she needs to stop this from spreading and save my sweet baby's life. Thank you.
