Scrappy is a 13-year-old Terrier/Shih Tzu in West Palm Beach, FL, who needs $2,000 for Sepsis/Bowel Tear Surgery.

Scrappy is a terrier/Shih Tzu mix that has been with us for 13 years. He is a kind, calm, loving and playful dog that enjoyed going on long walks with his mom throughout this whole time. Recently he was had blood in his stool and audible stomach pain. A week ago he vomited and started screaming loudly in pain and pacing fast.

Scrappy usually sleeps in his beds or explores the house and wants to eat delicious food when he is not walking. He gets excited when his owners come home and greets them.

Throughout his whole life he was always happy and excited to go during his walks he always follows us and gets excited when cooking food and during BBQs.

Since scrappy started having blood in his stools, screaming in pain, vomiting, trembling and pacing fast, we brought him to the emergency veterinarian hospital. They informed us he has septsis, which is when a bacterial infections gets into his blood and triggers inflammation throughout his body and organs. This happened after his bowel had a tear in it. He immediately had to have surgery.

We do not have a high income compared to what the hospital is charging, my wage is 15$ per hour and my family member earns 11$ per hour, the hospital wants to charge $12848 for everything on the invoice they gave us.
