About this campaign

For 14 years, Scorpio Anne has filled her family's life with unconditional love, comfort, and unwavering loyalty. Affectionately known as "Big Mama," this gentle Pit Bull Terrier has been a devoted protector, loving companion, and the heart of her home ever since her mom welcomed her into the family years ago. Now, when Scorpio Anne needs her most, her mom is doing everything she can to help her through the fight of her life.

Earlier this summer, Scorpio Anne's mom noticed blood coming from her paw. A closer examination revealed several masses, and thanks to the support of another nonprofit organization, she was able to have biopsies performed. The results brought both heartbreak and hope. Two of the masses are benign, but one is cancerous. Thankfully, her veterinarian believes Scorpio Anne has an excellent chance for a good recovery—but only if all three masses are removed as soon as possible. Until then, Scorpio Anne continues to live with painful, bleeding growths that require frequent bandage changes just to keep her comfortable.

Watching her beloved best friend endure this every day has been incredibly difficult for her mom, who simply wants Scorpio Anne to spend her senior years surrounded by love instead of pain. The surgery to remove the masses is estimated to cost $3,068.99. Thanks to a generous $200 grant from Paws 4 A Cure, part of her care has already been covered, but her family still needs to raise $2,500 to move forward with surgery, medications, and post-operative care.

Despite everything she's facing, Scorpio Anne's loving spirit continues to shine. She still has so much love to give, and her family is determined to give her every opportunity to heal and enjoy the happy, comfortable retirement she has earned. Your tax-deductible donation can help make that possible. Every dollar brings Scorpio Anne one step closer to lifesaving surgery and a future free from the pain and constant bleeding she's experiencing today.

If you're unable to donate, sharing her fundraiser is another meaningful way to help. Every share expands her reach and brings hope that compassionate supporters will help her receive the care she urgently needs.

Together, we can help Big Mama leave pain behind and enjoy many more cherished moments with the family who loves her beyond measure.

Thank you for being part of Scorpio Anne's journey.
