Toshi is a 12 year old Mix-Breed in San Francisco, CA, who needs $3,691 for Surgical Removal of Soft Tissue Sarcoma in Hind Leg.

Our life with Toshi began in the Summer of 2014. Toshi and her litter mates were rescued from a kill shelter in Central California and brought to San Francisco’s SPCA. She and her litter mates were estimated to be 5 months of age. Soon thereafter she was cleared for potential adoption. She quickly chose my husband as her person and came home with us the same evening he introduced me to her.

Toshi needs to have a large tumor removed from one of her hind legs. Fortunately it has been a localized and slow growing tumor. She has been and remains to be otherwise healthy. She has continued her usual physical activities and remains super social. During the last couple of months the tumor has grown substantially and is now limiting her due to its size and weight. Surgery at SFAMC needed asap

Toshi has a big personality and voice! As a social butterfly she finds it necessary to say hello to all who near her path. This is followed by requesting to play with new or known person(s). She is successful with many people willing to oblige with her requests to play. It’s rare to go for a walk without people being complimentary or bringing out their smiles. She’s always ready for any adventure

The same week that we completed Toshi’s staging at SFAMC we were informed by our landlords that we were going to be served with a no fault eviction in order for them to move one of their relatives into our unit. It had been our home for 18 years and Toshi’s only home.
