Ginger

Ginger is a 12 year old Japanese Chin in Florissant , MO, who needs $695 for Cytology and X-ray.

Florissant, MO

Ginger came to us when my brother was working at a puppy barn in New Jersey. She was sick as a puppy and the workers there didnt think she would make it but her resilient spirit pulled her through. Now we have already had a beautiful 12 years with her. I cannot say enough great things about my Ginger and her beautiful soul. I only want her to know i did my very best and would never give up on her Recently my dog had been examined for a mass in her rectal area. The vet said it is most likely cancerous but we cannot determine this without a biopsy. The cost will be around $600- i would have to double check with the office. The importance of this test for us is to get confirmation that it is cancer, and the type, and how we can keep her as comfortable as possible if nothing can be done Every time Ginger has visited with the vet, groomers, or people, everyone has always said how calm and gentle she is. She has a warming presence. She is very intelligent and could even be a trickster at times. She still loves to roll around in the grass at her ripe age which I find to be wonderful, it makes me smile. She has a strong will to live and has overcome a lot. I admire her strength. While this may turn out to be end of life care, I didnt want to make Ginger suffer in any way shape or form it it can be avoided. This biopsy would completely change our approach on how to care for her and keep her comfortable if it turns out to be cancer.

Hank

Hank is a 10 year old Golden Retriever in Chicago, , who needs $2,000 for IV Antibiotics, Fluids, and Potential Surgery.

Chicago

Hank has been a part of our lives since we first became a couple 11 years ago. While we were long distance, Abigail was gifted our sweet boy by her dad when he was just a puppy. He has been here through college, med school, multiple moves, and now residency. He’s the rock that holds us and our three other dogs and cat together (and even tolerates snuggles from foster cats and dogs alike). On 9/4, he vomited and began having terrible coughing fits. We immediately took him to urgent care, where they found he had aspirated on his vomit causing pneumonia, and also had signs of a developing obstruction from scarring from a prior bowel surgery in 2018. He is admitted to MedVet Chicago for IV fluids, antibiotics, and breathing treatments, & may need surgery for his obstruction. Anyone who knows Hank will tell you he’s special. Our sweet gentle giant loves nothing like he loves hugs, snuggles, and a good tennis ball. He carries around jumbo stuffed animals like they are his babies. He has been our emotional rock through every difficult moment, immediately sensing when you’re upset and slamming down for a full body hug. At 10, he’s never lost his puppy-like spirit. As a resident doctor, Julia works 60-80 hours a week at minimum wage. Adding the student debt we both have and lasting strains on work opportunities after graduating in 2020, this is a huge hit. Additionally, we’ve incurred more expenses as fosters rescuing Chicago’s strays.
