Our dog’s name is Katie. Her ears are infected. She cannot be healed without TECA (Total Ear Canal Ablation) surgery. This surgery costs $6000. Katie is just two years old. She is often in pain and scratches her ears and cries. We want to keep Katie but cannot afford the surgery. My mother is still working, trying to keep the family together. She is in her eighties. We are on a tight budget. We love Katie very much and want to keep her. We will use any funds for the surgery.
