About this campaign

I found Solita abandoned on the street in 2018. She was scared, aggressive, and clearly tossed aside but we saw something in her worth saving. We named her “Solita” because she seemed like a lonely little girl. Over time, she transformed into the most nurturing soul in our home.

We now have five rescues, and Solita has become their gentle guardian. Her nickname is “Mama” because she comforts us.

Solita was attacked, leaving her with puncture wounds on her arm and chest, a broken toe, and traumatic tissue damage. The initial veterinary clinic wrapped her injuries, but she quickly developed necrotic skin that they couldn’t treat. We rushed her to Gulf Coast Emergency Veterinary Hospital in Houston, where the specialists found the infection had spread to her muscle. requiring daily care

Solita is the heart of our home. She’s gentle, watchful, and full of love especially toward the other rescues. Despite her rough past, she became our “Mama dog,” checking on the others like a little nurse, especially when someone’s feeling off. She doesn’t bark much, but she grumbles and huffs to let you know she’s paying attention
Her favorite place is the sunspot in the backyard.

We are on fixed income and We didn’t have an emergency fund large enough to cover this kind of crisis. We’ve spent what we could, but the treatments Solita needs aren’t slowing down. terrified that without help, we won’t be able to save her leg. Solita means everything to us
