My name is Daniela and I’m reaching out to ask for help for my sweet 14-year-old corgi, Gumball. Gumball is getting close to the end of her life, and I’m trying to raise money to humanely put her down and have her ashes returned to me.

I rescued Gumball when she was about 4 or 5 years old from a breeding homestead. She came to me covered in fleas and scratches, and I’ve done my absolute best to give her a soft, happy life ever since. She’s been my little shadow, my couch buddy, and one of the few constants in my life.

Lately, though, she’s been struggling. She doesn’t eat much anymore, has trouble breathing, and sometimes just cries — I think from pain. I can tell she’s tired. She’s held on for me for so long, but I know it’s time to let her go peacefully.

The problem is, I just can’t afford the cost of the vet visit, euthanasia, and cremation on my own right now. Anything you’re able to give would help me give Gumball the goodbye she deserves. I just want her to leave this world gently, with me by her side, and to be able to keep her ashes with me after.

Even if you can’t donate, sharing this would mean a lot. Thank you for reading, and thank you for loving her with me.
