Queen is a 3 month old German Shepherd Dog in Orlando, FL, who needs $5,000 for Open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF).

One year ago our family fur baby, Dutchess passed away from cancer after being with us for 17 years. It was a weird year not having her around and my husband and I agreed that our house felt empty. Our 2 boys missed Dutchess and they wanted a companion. Then in July of this year, we found Queen from someone on Facebook. She connected with us instantly and we knew she was our new baby.

Our baby, Queen, fractured her leg last week playing with our boys. While having a case of the zoomies, she ran under my son's legs and he fell on top of her. We knew she was really hurt when she couldn't put her leg down. We took her to the vet and they confirmed a complete fracture. She needs surgery and we're heading to the UF Small Animal Hospital in hopes to get help.

We named our baby Queen because we knew right away that was exactly what she would be for us. She chose us as her family, not the other way around and the instant connection she had with our boys showed us just how special she is. She is only 3 months old and is so smart, potty trained to go outside, sits when asked, and knows when cuddles are needed.

As with many others, life has been quite chaotic recently for us and after a very tough year of work struggles, bill struggles, and out of pocket health expenses, we're finally getting back on our feet but don't have the $5000 that we've been quoted for Queen's surgery.
