About this campaign
Adopting a retired racing Greyhound is a decades long dream. Pixie (Coconino) won 1st, 2nd and Place in 47 of 58 races in Australia. She is a working dog, did her duty and made it to the US. Royal Hounds Greyhound Adoption placed her with Karen and James and their hounds to get ready for her person...me! I adopted Pixie on August 11, 2023, one of the best days of my life! Pixie is her kennel name.
Pixie needs URGENT Peak Limb Amputation surgery. A bump on her left leg on July 12 grew along with limping. Vet team at Saltwater Animal Hospital looked her over, recommended X rays. July 23 confirmed Osteosarcoma (bone Cancer) in her left wrist. NO CANCER SPREAD TO CHEST & LUNGS confirmed by 3 team vets and a specialist in Radiology. Dr Nicole Deal, Dr Audrey DeHart, recommend surgery ASAP!
Pixie is a memorable dog, full of character, intelligence, playfulness, affection, a bit goofy and a little bit bossy pants! Foster Karen calls her the 'Christmas Morning Dog' so true every day! Pixie makes the most out of life! A working dog, she has her sense of duty making sure we stay on schedule! Loves all her squeaky toys! She loves everyone and they love her back me most of all!
Last 7 months have been challenging for me personally. Starting Christmas 2024 I was in the ER 3x, hospitalized, 2 surgeries, lost income and I moved! Pixie had two surgeries on torn nails on her paw, dental extractions. I am so low on funds and now Pixie's Osteosarcoma!
