Cali is a beautiful, loving, rambunctious 1.5 year old Lab/Pit mix that has stolen many hearts already, including mine and her official owner Natalia. In all her excitement though, Cali pushed herself to the limits and has sadly torn her ACL.
A bit of background: Cali began to limp a few months ago and initially her Veterinarian believed it was simply muscle soreness, but after weeks of follow up, 3 x-rays, and 4 consultations it was determined she had torn her ACL, has Hip Dysplasia and now needs costly surgery and rehabilitation. She is currently scheduled for surgery towards the end of April but we're hoping for an earlier date and are anxiously waiting on a call.
Describing the love for a dog is nearly impossible, and with Cali it is just the same. From the early morning wake-up calls, couch cuddles, and zoomies around the dog park she is the perfect companion and has ALL the love in the world.
Unfortunately, the reality is what it is and this surgery will take lots of time, patience, love, and money. The time, patience, and love is all taken care of but now we're reaching out to our friends for a little bit of help. Any donation small, medium or large would be appreciated beyond measure and while we may not be able to hug you all, we will forever be grateful.
All the Love,
Cali, Natalia, Tyler
