Penelope is a 5-year-old Thai Ridgeback in Santa Cruz, CA, who needs $1,975 for Stomach Testing and Treatment.

I was so blessed to have Penelope coming to my home she was found on a welfare check her person had passed away and she was watching over him for 10 days while he was deceased, she was so heartbroken when I got her, she is such a sweet and loving dog I cannot tell you how much she means to me, she is truly my best friend and I don't know what I would do without her, your belly is always hurting

This is the second emotional and physical rescue that is coming to my life, dogs are so aware of your feelings as I am aware of her feelings I have to have lost pretty much everybody in my life due to death I know how it feels, and I just want to be able to have Penelope have a long healthy life she sleeps with me she does everything with me she's constantly bothered by her stomach hurting

Penelope's best friend is name is PIP he is a to y Fox terrier, they are always playing together, she is so sweet and loving I cannot express this enough, one of her favorite toys is this stuffed seal that she sleeps with and takes such good care of she never does anything but cuddle with it, we were down on the beach and she found this baby ducky and all she wanted to do was protect and love it

Penelope has been to the vet more than once dealing with her stomach issues she needs more testing so we can find out exactly what is going on she is constantly sick with an upset stomach, I have been making all her food, trying to help her stomach issues she is always choking down stomach acid, she needs to get her stomach issues tested and treated, I have already spent everything I can

Right now we are all having a hard time financially, it is killing me knowing that my dog needs medical attention and I cannot afford it, she is my everything, I am just trying to get her checked out and get her the proper medical attention that is much needed to save her
