Rio is a 3-year-old Pit Mix in Mentone, CA, who needs $1,999 for Blood Transfusions.

Rio was a rescue. The moment I saw her I knew she belonged home with us. At the time we had a 14 year old pit he was our pride and joy our only baby for years. The three of us became five. Our pups are our babies for sure! We have two girls they are perfect with each other. Roughly the same age 3 and 4 yong and Yang. We (rio) is recently diagnosed with IMHA we will do anything to save her

Rio loves to love. Kisses everyone so hard her tounge slips into your mouth. She’s the best at it. Pat your chest and she jumps right into your arms. She is so loving and gentle truly the sweetest girl I’ve ever met. She has a sister zephyr at home. They love eq horned so much. I couldn’t have found a better fit. They share toys, beds and I’ve even caught them on the doggy cam hugging.

She talks to the neighbors dogs in a sound I’ve never heard before. It never gets old and you can’t wait for her to do it again. She’s such a great watch dog and has alerted me when a strange man was in our driveway while I was home alone she knew he was bad news!

We recently have been diagnosed with IMHA. Her red blood count level
Was so low we have done two blood transfusions. Ram every test we could, X-ray and imaging. So far her numbers have gone up a bit. Her fees have reached 9000. After losing my mom and not working mealy two months I was not prepared for such an unexpected turn of events I thought I had my trauma for the year.

Sudden expenses have happened all at once. Losing my mom and needing to prepare her end of life wishes, moving her belongings from her home really left me with no choice but to take the time off work. While needing to take rio to the vet both cars were down
