About this campaign
Pixie came into my nephew, Andrews life about 2 years ago. She was a rescue pup from TX who came to Colorado to find her forever home. She lives with Andrew at his 84 year old grandmothers house where the three of them keep each other company and watch over each other. Andrew stays in the basement and carries her up and down the stairs. Trying to keep her as quite as possible.
Pixie is so smart, funny, just adorable. Andrew took a lot of time and effort training her and it paid off. My 84 year old mom adores her and says she understands English. Before her injuries Pixie enjoyed hiking, wading, and enjoying all the amazing activities that a lucky Colorado dog can enjoy. Andrew rarely goes anywhere without her. She comes to all our family events.
When we ask to to do or not do something, she looks at us sideways and reluctantly does what we’ve asked. But if grandma asks her to do something, she does it. She patiently and calmly interacts with grandma and the 1 1/2 year baby in the family. She loves her stuffed animals. I’ve been around a lot of dogs being a former vet tech, she is one of the best ever.
Pixie tore her L cranial cruciate ligament apx 5 weeks ago. She was diagnosed at the Denver Dumb Friends League clinic for low income folks called Solutions. They do not do ortho sx. She tore there R CCL apx 4 weeks ago. I (Aunt Katy) work in the veterinary field in sales. I was able to get her some Balto braces to make her more comfortable. Through all my contacts, I cannot find anyone to help.
Andrew is living with his grandma, taking care of her, and delivering for Amazon part time. None of us are in a $ situation to help him/Pixie out. I am writing this for him because he is devastated and heartbroken seeing Pixie in such a state. She is Andrews everything.
