Hi, our names are Dixie and Nick, and we’re reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for help for our beloved dog, Melon. She has recently been diagnosed with a painful skin infection and a heart murmur that has left us both scared and overwhelmed.
Smelly is more than just a pet—she is family. She has brought endless joy, comfort, and unconditional love into our lives. Watching her struggle with discomfort and health issues has been heartbreaking.
We’ve already visited the vet and begun treatment, but the costs are quickly adding up. Between medications, skin treatments, diagnostic tests for the heart murmur, and possible follow-ups with a cardiologist, the expenses are more than we can manage alone right now.
Every donation, no matter how small, will go directly toward:
Vet visits and examinations
Medications and skin treatments
Diagnostic testing for the heart murmur
Follow-up care and any necessary procedures
If you’re not able to donate, we completely understand. Sharing this page with your friends or family would mean the world to us.
Thank you for taking the time to read Melon’s story. Your kindness and support give us hope during this difficult time.
With gratitude,
Dixie, Nick, and Melon
