Tallulah is a 2-year-old Border Collie in Tucson, AZ, who needs $2,000 for Hip Replacement.

Tallulah came into my home after the death of my first Border Collie, Faith. I wasn't sure I was ready to love again so soon. I saw a post for Border Collie puppies and this all white puff ball with blue eyes was available. I traveled out of town to get her and fell in love. I had a brain injury in 2019. Tallulah will finish service training later this year.

Tallulah is the smartest most entertaining dog I have ever had! We use talking buttons in our house. She has an "outside" button and buttons with family member names, depending on who she wants. She is with me all day everyday. Due to my medical disability, Tallulah remains by my side helping me navigate my brain injury and severe migraines. She's intuitive.

Tallulah loves to play hide and seek with toys, snacks, and people. She is very talkative and expressive in the things she wants. She is loving, kind, funny, protective, silly, playful and so very smart!

We put Tallulah in competitive Frisbee when she was a few months old. Thats when we learned she had hip dysplasia. She was running and her left hind leg fell under her. We knew it would progress, just not so quickly. Shes guarded when she plays. She doesn't jump anymore and she limps and struggles to get up and start walking . I don't like how meds make her feel.

I am on disability. My income is fixed. Tallulah will complete service training this year. Having Tallulah up and walking with no pain means the world to me. This will allow us both to get out in nature and walk. We could travel, see the ocean, without her hurting to walk.
