Ruca is a 2 month old Dalmatian in FOWLERVILLE, MI, who needs $2,000 for Parvo.

Ruca is short for Veruca Salt (from Willie Wonka). She is very spunky and like to get what she wants so the name just fit her. Lol.

She has 3 human siblings and 4 legged siblings as well that miss her and love her very much.

We found that Ruca has parvo the day we had to euthanize our cat, Monkey for Lymphoma. We attempted to treat it at home but she crashed so we had to rush her to the er. She has been there for 2 nights and is slowly getting better. Vet bills have already accumulated to over $4,0000 and I just don't know how I am going to come up with the remaining which could be 2000+ more.

Ruca hasn't been with us long but she is so smart and learns so fast. She is brave and loves to play with her toys. Her favorite beds are the ones that are way too big for her.

Before Ruca got sick our cat grew gravely I'll. After vet visits and ultrasounds and x-rays it was discovered that she had many tumors on her organs and had lymphoma. We got medicine in hopes to have a few more years with her but we got just over a month instead.
