Trixie is a 1 year old Mix-Breed in Brookfield , CT, who needs $2,000 for Forelimb Amputation.

Our Trixie girl, we as a family always wanted to rescue a dog from a shelter and change their life to the best life a dog can have. We chose her because she looked so sad and all we wanted was to make her so happy. I believe we have done that for our girl. However, at a family BBQ at the end of June a firework went off and Trixie being so big and strong got away from me, ran and got hit by a car.

We rushed our girl to VEG in whiteplains they told me there that the brachial nerve was most likely damaged in her front left leg, she did not walk for a week after this tragic event. We were pulling her around on a blanket and helping her along with a sling. Next the neurologist in Guardians in Brewster told us the same thing. We ultimately need to amputate her leg so she can flourish once again.

Trixie is the sweetest biggest baby. She loves all dogs and children. Especially her two human brothers who adore her. She loves walkies, bones and cuddling. We couldn't ask for a better pup and we want nothing more then her to live her best life. And even though this is the last thing we would expect for our girl we will be beside her in her journey. This is Trixie's story.

Trixie will need a complete amputation of the left front leg in order to regain her mobility to the best it can be. According to all the medical professional and my personal opinion she will do great and thrive on 3 legs. She is young and stong and needs this surgery.
