Peanut is a 13 year old Chihuahua in Mesa, AZ, who needs $1,804 for Mammary Mass on Abdomen Removal.

I picked up Peanut from a family member that had her as a puppy for the kids. I was visiting them, when I saw she had her leg broken. The kids were too young and I offered to take her with me to take care of her while she got better. 13 years later, she has been my companion. She has allowed me to be her life human. Sleeps, eats, walks with me 24/7 if life would allow us to.

Peanut started with an inflamed breast. I have read that old dogs start getting balls. During the last month, the quarter size ball is now the size of a Softball (bigger than a baseball). I took her to Dr Kellys Surgical Unit and was diagnosed with Mammary Mass on abdomen that needs to be removed. I am on a disability case and do not have the funds or credit to cover her medical emergency.

Peanut has been part of my family since a puppy. She has mainly followed me, no matter what I am doing. We have other dogs in the house, but she is very close to me and prefers to be close to me and not with the younger pack.

I am on a disability from work. I am not able to use my hands for my typing job. I am currently waiting to get results from workers compensation diagnosis to decide if they will take care of me. Peanut is my support when everything else feels like there is no end.
