Sugarplum is a 15 year old Dachshund in Stone Mountain, GA, who needs $1,800 for Mastectomy.

Sugarplum is a 15 year old brown female dachshund who has been a beloved part of my life since I was 10 years old and now I’m 25. I was given her when she was just three months old, and since then, she has been my constant companion, bringing joy, comfort, and unconditional love. She has always been a sweet and affectionate dog, known for her love of cuddles and giving “sugar” (licks).

Sugarplum has developed a rapidly growing mammary tumor, which my veterinarian suspects could be cancerous. Over the past few weeks, the tumor has noticeably increased in size, and I have been advised by animal medical center of Lawrenceville that she needs surgery for removal . Given her age, early intervention is crucial to ensure her comfort and quality of life

No matter what kind of day I’ve had, she greets me with a wagging tail and warm snuggles, making every moment brighter.Despite her age, Sugarplum still has a playful spirit and loves to be near people . She enjoys burrowing under blankets, lying beside me on the couch, and being close to anyone who gives her attention. She has a gentle nature and brings comfort to everyone she meets.

Recently, I experienced a physical assault at work that resulted in injuries requiring medical attention and time off to heal. The time away from work has placed an unexpected financial strain on me, making it even more difficult to afford Sugarplum’s urgent medical care
