Willow is a 7 year old Shih Tzu in Pueblo, CO, who needs $1,000 for Pyrometria Closed Uterine Infection.

Willow came into my life when I was not looking. She was part of a pair of sisters that I rescued from a neighbor when no one wanted them. She has been part of my family for 7 years. She is the sweetest little earth angel with the best disposition. September, I lost my husband to cancer whom we all loved so much, all of our hearts were broken and now I find myself needing help to save her.

Currently I am trying to find a vet that will take her. Just recently she started showing a hernia that is bulging out and she won't move very much, I'm terrified she won't make it until I raise the money. I have called the vets in town and they say that won't take her in with ought a payment up front first. I do not have much after my husband died, I only have a just enough for bills and rent.

Willow is an angel, she is intuitive, she knows when you need a little puppy hug or just a quiet companion. She loves her turtle Iggy, and watching dogs on TV. She truly is an earth angel that loves and remembers everyone. She's one of the biggest things to help me through my grief since my husband died in September. Without her, I know I wouldn't have made it through.

I know that to get her seen the cost is $175 and then the tests can add up to about $3000 if it is her hernia that needs correcting. I fear the worst that I won't be able to save the money in time. I would be forever grateful for anyones help and would return the kindness!
