Sugar bear is a 7-year-old Shih Tzu Bichon poodle in WI, who needs $1,500 for teeth extraction and cleaning.

Sugar was a gift from an old friend. She has saved me, literally, a few times thru the last 7 years. I am in a living situation where I cannot have her with me, so she stays with my parents, grandma and grandpa! My brother, who stays with my parents, is her best friend right now. i am just grateful that my fam loves her just as much as i do.

she is spoiled with love! i have done fostering and puppy runs in the past and she has always been a leader to the puppies around her. but she has held her own with my old pitty and the neighbors huskies. right now, my brother is her favorite person. he will play with her after work. otherwise she is on my mothers lap in their favorite chair.

I am in sober living, my mother had a transplant a few years ago because of her autoimmune disease, and one grandmother died recently. we are just wanting sugar not to be in any pain with her teeth.

I have always gone to sussex vet clinic. My parents started going with their puppy, lucky who passed a few years back at the age of 13, and they have been good to us. right now, sugar has horrible teeth. always has, but not uncommon in little dogs. it will be 1500 to fix them, and we just don't have the money.

she is amazing to come home to, just showers everyone with kisses. Ever since she was a puppy, she gets us all going how she nonstops runs in a circle, and how she loves to play with her toys. i love how she flings herself backwards whenever you pick her up so she can be held like a baby. it kind of scares new people to her when she does it tho!
