Help Save Pocahontas — Our Sweet Girl Needs Lifesaving Surgery

My name is Karen , and I’m reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for help saving my beloved dog, Pocahontas.

Pocahontas is a 14-year-old chiweenie (chihuahua-dachshund mix) who has been my shadow, my comfort, and my family. She’s black, grey, and white — and full of gentle spunk despite her age.

Pocahontas was diagnosed with mammary gland tumors, which the veterinarian confirmed as urgent and likely cancerous. She now needs surgery to remove the tumors before they grow or spread.

The cost for her surgery and care is $1,883.35, and unfortunately, I’ve exhausted all options trying to come up with the funds. I live on a very limited income and have been denied by multiple assistance programs. I’m doing everything I can — including applying for help, selling belongings — but I can’t do this alone. Pocahontas is still eating, wagging her tail,

and full of life. With this surgery, she has a fighting chance to stay with me longer, pain-free and happy. Without it, her condition could worsen quickly. Every dollar helps. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading, caring, and helping us save her.
