Pepper is a 4-year-old Pitbull in Fort Wayne, IN, who needs $1,000 for Tail Surgery.

I meet Pepper when she was born, I've had her for her whole 4 years of her life. I'm more than her owner, I'm her best friend and mother. She has a anxiety disorder unless pepper is around me then she feels relaxed. Pepper loves her cuddle times, we've always understood each other. She has a little brother that she loves even if he annoys her sometimes.

Pepper loves to play fetch with her ball.
She sleeps wherever I sleep no matter where or on the couch if I'm not around. Her best human friend is my husband. People make her nervous at first until you give her a treat! Her favorite pass time is cuddles and belly rubs. She does happy feet dance when it's dinner time. Tip tap'

Pepper loves playing with her non-biological brother. She loves to jump in the air and catch her ball. She looks like Superdog! Pepper knows how to play hide and seek. Either she will hide or I'll hide. She gets zoomies when she finds me. Playing in the mud is her favorite activity when it rains! She hates the baths afterwards but it's worth it.

I'm looking for emergency vet care. Pepper suffers from anxiety. We had an unexpected change in our life that left us with only one option that pepper didn't coop well with, she started chewing on her tail. I tried bandaging her tail, giving her neck cones to stop her but one day she chewed her tail off. I've been trying home bandaging but it's gotten infected, swollen and half her tail is dead.

My husband has a back injury and I lost my job causing us to have to move with major expenses. I love pepper so much and I hate to see her suffer. I just want her happy and healthy again. She is in pain and I've tried everything to help fix her but their is so much I can do.
