Help Girlfriend Get Knee Surgery

Donation protected

If you've ever met Girlfriend, you know she is a sweet, sweet puppy with a big old heart. If you've ever met me, you know that I am just obsessed with her. She is my sunrise and sunset. When I saved her life, she saved mine. I was raped by a cop in May 2011, and in February 2012 he had been found guilty by a jury but not sentenced yet. I was in a spiritual, mental and physical limbo, and I was basically drinking myself to death. It was finding Girlfriend wandering on a snowy street in Detroit that brought me back to life. 

The day I found her, 2/25/2011

Her Puppies

We've been through A LOT together. She had puppies and was heartworm positive when I found her. She's been attacked by dogs, and had to have surgery. Every time something goes wrong with her, my heart breaks. She has bad luck, but I have always taken care of her. She is always my first priority. 

She was so skinny when I found her, so sick and scared :(

Not anymore! She's a happy Girl!

Last week Girlfriend started limping on her back leg, and I knew something was wrong. I immediately took her to the vet, where we learned she had a partial tear of her CCL (like an ACL, but for dogs). Although she was put on bed rest, I could tell it was getting worse and today the vet confirmed it was ruptured and she needs surgery. This is an unexpected cost and I just don't have the funds at this time. I've always tried to donate to your campaigns, and I never saw myself starting one, but if you know me you know I would do ANYTHING my Girl. 



The surgery STARTS at $3400, and there's a surgeon who can get her in THIS WEEK. Can you reach into your wallet and help my sweet Girl? We would be forever grateful. Thank you so much, Emily and Girlfriend.
