Help My Soul Companion Goochi Heal Her Fractured Jaw

For 15 beautiful years, Goochi has been by my side—my constant through life’s highs and lows, my soul companion, my soft place to land. She’s an Italian Greyhound Miniature Pinscher mix with the spirit of an old, wise lady and the heart of a child—gentle, loyal, and endlessly loving.

We’ve grown together through every season of life. From heartbreaks to healing, new beginnings to quiet moments of rest, Goochi has always been there, curled up beside me, reminding me what unconditional love feels like. She’s not just a dog—she is my family, my comfort, my peace, and my home.

What makes Goochi so special is not just her loyalty, but her magic. She’s incredibly intuitive—when I’ve spiraled into episodes of depression, anxiety, or PTSD, she’s never left my side. She has held space for me in ways even humans couldn’t. During moments of stillness and meditation, she drops into a kind of deep, sacred presence, as if she’s anchoring me to the Earth with her quiet strength and soul wisdom. She is a healer in fur—an emotional support being, a guardian, and a guide, a teacher.

She has taught me so much just by being who she is. Her strength, resilience, gentleness, and grace have become qualities I strive to embody myself. Even now, as she moves through pain, she does it with patience and softness that humbles me. She’s always been a mirror of everything beautiful I sometimes forget exists in the world.

Lately, her little body has been through so much. She’s been in and out of the hospital battling pancreatitis, suffering from pulled muscles and slip disc’s from trying to keep up with the superhero she used to be, and now—most heartbreakingly—she’s fractured her jaw and needs surgery. Watching her in pain has been gut-wrenching. She’s still full of life and love, but this injury is making it hard for her to eat, to rest comfortably, and to enjoy the simple things she loves—gentle cuddles, her favorite soft foods, sunbathing, and being close to me.

The cost of surgery, medication, and follow-up care is more than I can afford on my own right now. Life has brought a series of challenges—physically, emotionally, and financially—and while I’ve always done everything I can to give Goochi a safe, cozy, love-filled life, I now find myself needing help to do that.

If you’ve ever known the kind of soul-animal bond that transcends words, then you know how sacred this is. Goochi is not just a dog—she’s a part of my spirit, a reflection of resilience, and a vessel of pure love.

Any contribution—big or small—will help ease her pain and support her healing. Even sharing this campaign can make a difference.

Thank you, from the deepest part of my heart, for seeing Goochi the way I do. For helping me return to her the grace and care she has given me time and time again.

With love and infinite gratitude,

Kayla & Goochi
