Poppy June is a 7-month-old Black Lab in Canterbury , CT, who needs $1,500 for Spine/Hip Surgery.

Poppy June the farm pup is approximately 7 months old. She lives with a slew of farm critters including her favorites our emus & cows. She also has 5 human siblings & 4 pup brothers & a pup sister. She came into our lives giving us a glimmer of hope & love after we lost our old man lab to cancer last year. We have been so blessed to have her silly self in our lives.

Poppy is like one of those family members that you always complain about because they are stealing your snacks or sitting in your seat, but you couldn’t imagine what life would be like if they were not there. She always greets her two big brothers when they get off the bus after school & snuggles under the covers with her paws out at in her mom & dads bed.

Pop’s loves to run around all day outside, chase leaves, play with the goats & cows. She has recently learned to sit. (She’s a bit stubborn). She sits patiently waiting for her big glitter sister feeds her snacks from all her meals & is so gentle with everyone. She is the best couch potato & snuggler. Even if she does take up half the bed by herself because she needs to have her legs stretched out

Poppy June was unfortunately hit by a truck a few days ago. Unbeknownst to her mom & dad she had crossed the street & came running back just as a truck came barreling down the road. We don’t fault the driver, but he was certainly driving too fast & had he been driving slower he could have missed her. She has required 2 surgeries & a very expensive multi day stay at the vet hospital.

We are a one family income household & like most are feeling our purse strings pulled tighter it seems almost monthly. With the rising costs of her vet fees we are struggling with the financial burden we now have. With having a farm, 5 kids & 4 other pups it’s tough.
