Amber the Dog's Cancer Treatment!

Donation protected
In late 2012, Amber's throat was slashed from one side to the other by her previous owner and drug into the woods; left for dead. 15 hours later, after a phone call to the St. Johns County Sherriff's office, Amber was rescued by one of the officer's responding to the call (my dad) and taken in as our third rescue dog of the household. She fully recovered thanks to a lot of love, support and wonderful vet care.


In the middle of September 2014, after almost two years of a wonderful, loving, stress-free life, Amber was diagnosed with Lymphoma Carcinoma, Cancer of the Lymph Nodes. We know from Amber's previous experience she is a fighter, and a very strong dog. She is kind, loving, and enjoys her life to the fullest, and we want her to continue to do so. Currently, Amber is undergoing chemo, treatment at Southeastern Veterinary Oncology and Internal Medicine (SEVO) in Orange Park, Florida and we hope all will go well.

UPDATE 2017:
Amber remained in remission for about a year and half. Unfortunately at the beginning of 2017, she relapsed and began chemo treatment again. Amber has recieved several different chemo protocols, 4 different kinds to be exact. We started a new protocol and finally some progress has been made! Amber's treatments are $1,400 each, occurring every three weeks. I have re-activated this gofund me to help alleviate the burden of medical costs for my family. Any donation is helpful and certainly appreciated! If you cannot donate, I completely understand and I hope you will share this link with friends and family and continue following Amber's journey!

Any money that is raised will go to Amber's staggering medical bills and vet care. We appreciate any and every amount donated, we love all of Amber's supporters.
