Sparkles is a 9-year-old Mini Poodle in Bowie, MD, who needs $2,000 for Ventral Slot Decompressive Surgery.

We adopted Sparkles at the animal shelter at Prince George Animal Shelter. She was abandon and came into our life. I take care of my elderly mother who is on dialysis and has Sickle Cell. Sparkles means the world to my mother. She has been with our family for four years now. She has brought my mother so much joy and given her much reason to live.

Sparkles is always so grateful and happy to see new people and new faces. She loves to greet people and dogs when they come into the home. She loves to have her belly rubbed and to sun bath. She also like to cuddle with my mother is who is a disabled retired from the state of Maryland. My mother has Sickle Cell and goes to Dialysis, she really brightens up her day.

Sparkles love to have her belly rubbed and to smell the air outside. She is always so friendly and love to greet new people when they come into her area. She loves to sit with my mother and watch tv and moves. They also like to eat a drink water together. When she wants her belly rub. She will flob on the floor with her belly in the air to be rubbed.

My mini poodle was attacked at the Bowie Dog Park in Maryland. She had to receive stitches and will need surgery. This will cost $11946.39. The hospital that she is receiving treatment at is Anna Arundel Veterinary Emergency. The Neurologist attending to her is Nick Archambault. She is in a tremendous amount of pain.

I'm a disabled military veteran taking care of my elderly mother on a fixed income. It would mean the world to have Sparkles able to walk again as she is not able to. My mother would be so grateful to see sparkles again lying with her.
