Sheba is a 12-year-old Cane Corso Mix in Detroit, MI, who needs $2,700 for Caudectomy.

Sheba was a shelter dog that that came into our lives April 2008. We adopted her from Michigan Humane Society. Sheba is my only female and she governs my 5 yr old male Pitt Bull. Sheba has always been loving and affectionate. Sheba lives inside and will only sleep on soft beds. She also is food specific, love to chase squirrels, and doggie treats.

Sheba was initially adopted to be a companion to our 3 yr old Rottweiler Romello. Romello was suffering from a deep depression after the sudden death of his same litter brother. Sheba gradually nursed our Rottie back to happiness. We then started calling Sheba,,,'SisterMom'. Sheba a.k.a. Sistermom has since then raised 2 other dogs. Sheba is loved by my 1, 2, and 9 yr old's who live w/us.

My financial bracket lands me under poverty stricken. I am a single grandmother who now assists my daughter with her three children within my home. The vet had informed me at the time that the total cost for removal would well be in the thousands ...I love my baby and

Sheba was diagnosed with a cyst on her tail maybe 2-3 years ago that has grown tremendously in time. She was taken to the MHS in Westland, Michigan. Sheba is not in any pain, but she is now unable to move sometimes without losing her balance, falling down, and then losing her bladder (wetting ). She will take off running in the backyard or house and on her return stagger and then collapse.

Queen Sheba monopolizes all dog toys. Whenever her or her brother's food bowls are empty she kicks them around like a hockey puck until I fill them. Sheba, aka 'Sistermom' has one more name that she answers to...and that is 'Poopie". I don't know why we started calling her that, but its's fitting; she is a big old baby. There have been stressful times and Sheba has been right on my side,
