Ventoso is a 10 year old Mix-Breed in Charlotte, NC, who needs $2,000 for ACL/ Dental.

Hello everyone, I’m Glenn, and my main baby dog of roughly 11 years is Ventoso, but we call her Vinny mostly. I’ve had her ever since she was 6 weeks old. I picked her up first from the litter and we immediately bonded. This is the most sweetest dog in the world to me. When I’m home, just like when we choose each other, she stays by my side.

Vinny has always been a healthy girl, but she’s getting up there in age. She recently hurt her leg. I don’t really know how, my girl said she believes my Great Pyrenees accidentally stepped on her foot rushing out the door together. I believe she tore her ACL. She also needs some dental work. I use Queen City animal hospital.

Vinny is special because she is my first dog living on my own home since childhood. I’ve had to save her in the past because she thinks she is bigger than she is, she tried her faith with bigger dogs, they didn’t care if she was boss. I also have to dogs I kept from her litter. She has a great time with her two daughters and my two other dogs and two cats as well.

I just can’t afford a big bill as I know this will be. I got a brace for her, but it’s not going to work. I just don’t know what to do. It’s hurting me because I can’t get the help she needs, even though she has always filled me with joy, she is so happy even hiding pain.
