Mushu is a super adorable and worthy dog who was rescued from a heartbreaking hoarding situation in Mariposa, CA, in September 2025. He spent his early years with 36 other dogs in a double-wide trailer, never seeing the outdoors or the light of day. The neglect and poor nutrition he endured have left him with many health challenges, but his spirit remains unbroken.

I am new to fostering dogs, but not to rescue—if there’s a heartbeat, I’m there! When Mushu became my foster, I knew he needed a lot of care. Thankfully, a local nonprofit and I have been able to cover most of his medical needs. However, Mushu’s vet says he needs extensive dental work due to the years of neglect, and the cost is more than I can manage on my own. The nonprofit simply doesn’t have the funds for this procedure.

I am committed to adopting Mushu and giving him the loving home he deserves. With your help, we can get Mushu the dental care he needs to live pain-free and enjoy his new life. I’m reaching out because I can’t do this alone—anything you can give will make a difference for Mushu. Thank you so much for your kindness and support!
