Teagan

Teagan is a six-year-old Chihuahua mix in Boulder, CO, who needs $1,800 for leg surgery.

Boulder, CO

When Meghan H. saw a picture of a scruffy, sweet-faced Chihuahua mix named Teagan who needed a home, she instantly knew that was the dog for her. "We immediately fell in love with Teagan," Meghan tells Waggle. "She was formerly trained as an emotional support animal, and it shows. We call her Tea at home, and she is beginning to adjust to life with walks and playdates with other dogs." But as Teagan was out and about with other dogs, Meghan noticed she was having problems, "She hops on her back right leg when walking, as it is painful for her to bear weight on her left leg," Meghan says. It turned out Teagan was born with both of her knee caps out of place. The condition is called a luxating patella. "The veterinarian has told us that the severity of her condition will eventually result in torn ligaments and arthritis, which we are trying our best to prevent," Meghan adds. Luckily, surgery can help fix Teagan's condition, and Dr. Andrew Boal at Rise Vet is standing by to operate, but Meghan needs to raise the money for the procedure. "As a graduate student who has faced financial hardship during the pandemic, Teagan's needs have become an insurmountable hardship," Meghan says. "We love Teagan so much and can't wait to see her reach her full potential, running zoomies around our apartment without pain." Meghan is hoping giving animal lovers will help them rescue Teagan a second time and help give her a pain-free future.

Baby

Baby was tragically tortured. Please show him love and support.

St Petersburg, FL • Compassion Kind Foundation

Baby's story is heartbreaking, but Compassion Kind Foundation is determined to give him the chance he deserves. They first found Baby in Jamaica with a severely mangled ear and a large wound on his neck. Despite their best efforts, they were unable to catch him that first night. When they returned the next day, they learned that he had been tragically stoned and driven from the area. But they refused to give up on him. After tracking him down, they were finally able to get Baby to safety. He is now at the veterinary clinic receiving the urgent medical care he desperately needs. Baby has already endured more pain and suffering than any animal should. Now he needs our help to heal. Donations of any amount will go directly toward his medical treatment, wound care, medications, and recovery. Please consider donating and sharing Baby's story. He is such a sweet boy and did not deserve the pain and torture he went through. Together, we can show him that kindness exists and give him the future he deserves.

Dolly and 9 Puppies

Dolly had to have an emergency c-section.

Fuquay Varina, NC • US Dog Coalition and Rescue

Dolly came to U.S. Dog Coalition as an owner surrender from a high-kill shelter in rural Northampton County. She was already in heartbreaking condition—heartworm positive, malnourished, and clearly neglected for far too long. Despite everything she had endured, she was carrying a litter of puppies and deserved a chance at a better life. When Dolly went into labor, it quickly became clear that something was terribly wrong. She was in severe distress, and there was no time to wait. They rushed her in for an emergency C-section in a desperate effort to save her and her babies. Sadly, the first puppy was born deceased. But thanks to the emergency surgery, Dolly was able to safely deliver nine puppies. The procedure saved lives, but it came at a tremendous cost. The emergency C-section bill was nearly $5,000, completely depleting their rescue funds. Dolly still has a long road ahead. She needs to recover from surgery, care for her puppies, and eventually begin treatment for her heartworm disease. We are asking for donations to help cover the cost of her emergency surgery and ongoing care. Any amount, no matter how small, will help Dolly and her puppies get the fresh start they deserve. Thank you for standing with them during this critical time.

Bafang

Bafang is a 5 month old Labrador Retriever in Cambridge, MA, who needs $10,000 for Orthopedic Surgery for Leg Fracture.

Cambridge, MA

Bafang is a young Labrador retriever who came into my life as a puppy and quickly became my constant companion. We live together in a small apartment, and he is my only pet. His name, “Bafang,” means “eight directions,” chosen to reflect my hope that he would grow up safe, curious, and full of possibility. From the beginning, he has been gentle, affectionate, and deeply bonded to me. Bafang recently suffered a serious leg injury that requires surgical treatment. We are currently working with VEG Cambridge, under the care of Dr. Perry. This is an acute injury rather than a chronic condition, and surgery is necessary to relieve his pain and restore his mobility so he can recover and live a normal, active life. Bafang is an incredibly loving and expressive dog. He follows me from room to room, greets everyone with enthusiasm, and finds joy in simple things like carrying his favorite toy or watching the world outside the window. He is playful but gentle, sensitive to my emotions, and brings comfort simply by staying close. His presence has been a steady source of warmth and companionship. The cost of Bafang’s surgery is a sudden and unexpected expense that exceeds what I can manage on my own right now. Support would help relieve an overwhelming financial burden and allow me to focus on his recovery, knowing he can receive the care he urgently needs to heal an

Minnie

Minnie is a 7 year old Mix-Breed in Shafter, CA, who needs $2,000 for Spay with Mass Removal and Biopsy.

Shafter, CA

We adopted Minnie by a friend that knew someone was giving away puppies for a price. It was meant to be due to Minnie being the last puppy left. She's been a part of our lives for 7 years. Minnie has a little brother name Snuggs, he is 5 years old and he always have been protective of her and she taught him the rules as if he was her own. I chose her name Minnie because she was born so tiny and l We took Minnie to the VCA (Bakersfield Animal Hospital) on May 31, 2025 due to a bump on one of her breasts that popped. Unfortunately, the Vet believes it to be breast cancer but wants to do a biopsy to confirm. Unfortunately, we can't do the surgery, they have her on antibiotics to help keep it calm and prevent any infection until she can have the surgery. Minnie is the most sweetest thing you will ever meet, she's so smart, funny, and loves getting treats. Minnie is full of personality and if you saw her you would fall in love with her as much as we do. Minnie loves cuddling and hugging every time she sees family and friends, toys, and human food. Minnie brings a smile and joy to anyone's face and we can't get enough of her. I recently lost my job due to unfortunate health issues with my back, a mass and infection in my neck, Minnie's other owner is working, but due to some circumstances we are not able to afford it. I am fighting for more time with Minnie, who deserves to experience the world.

Obsidian (Obi)

Obsidian (Obi) is a 6 year old Mix-Breed in Fairfa

Fairfax, VA

Obi was gifted to me after the passing of our family cat. I was 16 and had just started working and so all my paychecks were spent on spoiling him. He has a younger sister named tulip and since then it’s been the three of us against the world. I had to move out once I turned 18 and they’ve been my priority. There’s been a lot of challenges but we’ve faced together. He is my soul cat / baby. Obi was admitted 5/5/2025,he went in for an emergency blockage. My cat that had passed prior was due to the same issue but was caught late and so he unfortunately passed. I had so much PTSD since and I’m happy Obi was able to receive medical treatment at Pender Veterinary Clinic, where they’re now observing him so he can finally come home. It’s been a long week for both tulip and I we miss our boy Obi has always been a little quirky. When Obi was gifted to me, i assumed he was mute because anytime he tried to meow just a little gust air would come out no sound lol. Now he does the cutest silenced meows i’ve ever heard. He’s always full of energy he’s 6 but still acts like a kitten. He loves sunbathing and playing with his sister Tulip around the house whose a tortoiseshell cat. I’m 21 and I only support myself, this was an unexpected medical emergency which has left me terrified. I live on my own and recently had to replace my old car since it broke down, so financially i’m in a tight spot. I can’t lose my boy, i’ll do anything to have him home.

Minnow

Minnow is a 4 year old Belgian Shepherd Dog (Malinois) in Kawkawlin , MI, who needs $2,000 for Anal Gland Sac Surgical Removal.

Kawkawlin, MI

Minnow came into our lives a few months after losing our German Shepherd of 13 years. Leery of taking another dog, a friend told us to give Minnow a try. As a pup, Minnow came from a crack house before being rescued and taken away from it. Her rescuers took her for two years but not long term. We gave her a chance and fell in love. Having her almost 2 years now, thinking of losing her is tragic. We are seeking financial assistance for Minnow's upcoming CT scan/pending surgery. Health issues started after anal gland infections. First vet consult put her on wrong antibiotic for infection, causing kidney/ liver counts to go high. A second vet opinion, found hard tumor in anal sac, causing infection. They put her on the right meds but tumor didn't shrink. The tumor must be surgical removed. Favorite treats are chicken and sweet potato bones. She can sit, stay, speak, roll over, and high five. She has athletic skills with her frisbee. During winter loves to eat and roll around in snow. She loves car rides, her smile is priceless. However, Minnow hates thunder and rain causing her anxiety. Special people are grandma and grandpa and four-legged friends Freddy and neighbor dog Arthur. Our financial situation does not allow us the ability to do what we need for Minnow. A combination of the current economy and four college student loans have kept things tight. We pray that we can keep Minnow for many years. She needs help and we would do anything for her.

Sparky

Sparky is a 7 year old Mix-Breed in Gobles, MI, who needs $600 for Diagnosis and Treatment for Injuries.

Gobles, MI

Sparky came to us in 2017 as the runt of his litter. He chose us and we have loved him since! He survived being hit by a car in 2020, and truly is a fighter! Yesterday he got in the middle of a dog fight and today has a large pocket of fluid covering the top of his head, and it’s moving down his neck. He is lethargic and not acting like himself. He is our baby and we are so worried about him! He was in a dog fight and has a large mass of fluid covering the top of his head, and traveling down his neck. He is lethargic and isn’t acting like himself. He also is missing more teeth and has some issues going on with his teeth/gums that. Needs to be addressed. We use Allegan Vet Clinic. Sparky is our spunky little guy! He doesn’t travel with us though, since he gets carsick easily. He sleeps with me nightly and follows me everywhere at home. He also loves his 10 and 11 year old human siblings who spoil him rotten. He is very special to us and we hope to have many years left with him. I am currently applying for early disability retirement, and have been out of work for 17 months. Finances are VERY limited at this time while I wait for benefits to be approved.

George

George is a 7-year-old Chihuahua in Kentwood, MI, who needs $2,000 for Luxating Patella and Torn ACL Surgery.

Kentwood, MI • Pet Tales Rescue

George was abandoned in an apartment after his previous owners moved out. He was taken to Kent County Animal Shelter and later pulled by Pet Tales Rescue. It was discovered that George not only has luxating patellas on both knees but also due to his poor diet that caused significant weight gain, George also has a torn ACL ligament in his left leg. His surgery for just his one leg will cost $3500.0 George is probably the easiest foster that I have had in my 15 years of rescue. George is very easy going, gets along great with the other 4 dogs in my house, including three other littles and a 70lb dog as well. George has to sleep under the blankets at night and has to be right up against you. He loves his fuzzy blankets. George is housebroken as well. George gets along with all the dogs. George does love his treats and his fuzzy blankets. George is just a very friendly little dog that makes a great pet for anyone. He does tilt his head to the side when you are talking to him that is so adorable. He also has picked up from my other dogs that every time I walk out to the kitchen I must be getting a treat for him and the other dogs. George was not taken very good care of and has had poor nutrition from his previous owners. This resulted in George being significantly overweight which caused his current health issues. George has luxating pattellas in both knees and a torn ACL in his left leg. His surgery for just his left leg alone will be $3500.00 We are a small non-profit pet rescue that has spent over $20,000 in major surgeries and sick pet emergencies since January 2023. This has caused Pet Tales has to go on a intake hold for any pets requiring any significant vet care.
