Hello, I am Sam Devine and everyone who knows me knows how much I love my dogs. I’ve had Raelynn for 8 years now, and she’s the first dog I ever got on my own in my adult life. She’s been in great health these past few years, and the only thing she’s been in need of is a dental. That being said, I was supposed to get her dental done with my federal tax refund, but I ended up getting screwed by the state I used to live in, saying I owed them money from 2020, so they took my whole refund.

Anyhow, this morning, February 23, 2026, upon waking up, Raelynn’s whole side of her face was swollen. I had given her Benadryl in hopes it was just an allergic reaction, but it’s still completely swollen. I need to get her into the vet and get her dental done and get her checked out. If anything were to happen to her, I would be devastated. I hate asking for help and usually do anything to make her ends meet and do things on my own, but I really need help right now. The dental I was going to take her to was through Low Cost Jasper County, which provides transportation to a vet a little further, but if the swelling persists, I will need to take her to a more local vet. Thank you all in advance. If you don’t have the means to donate, please share!

Any and all funds will go to her vet visit as well as her dental.
