Update: I added post surgery photos. Nonetheless, surgery still owed. Sam is a sweet dog who was rescued from an LA shelter after suffering abuse and neglect from her previous owners. When she was adopted by her loving new family, they quickly realized that Sam had a serious knee injury. Despite their best efforts to give her a happy home, her condition has worsened, and she now needs surgery to repair her knee. Her new parents love her so much that they even sleep on the floor to keep her company, but the cost of surgery is simply more than they can afford.

After being quoted a high amount for surgery at a local vet, Sam's family found a more affordable option in TJ. Unfortunately, even this reduced amount is out of reach for them. Sam's injury has left her unable to walk much, and she has become depressed and lost weight due to her inactivity. She deserves a chance to live a happy, healthy life after everything she has been through.

This GoFundMe will not only cover Sam's surgery, but also her 5-day hospital stay, X-rays, ultrasound, and the physical therapy she will need to recover. We learned about her difficult journey thanks to an anonymous volunteer who cared enough to share her story. Please help me help Sam get the care she needs to finally have the life she deserves. Your support will make a world of difference for her.
