Canela is our older Australian shepherd, and she means the world to me and my husband. Her name means cinnamon in Spanish, and she truly brings warmth and comfort to our lives. We don’t have much for supportive family, so Canela has been our rock, always there for us through every challenge and joy.

Recently, Canela developed a severe infection in her uterus and is now in sepsis. It’s been heartbreaking to watch her struggle, and we’re doing everything we can to save her. The only way for her to recover is through urgent surgery, but the costs are more than we can manage. We’ve already used all of our retirement savings, but it’s still not enough to cover her medical expenses.

We’re reaching out for help because Canela means everything to us. Any support you can give will go directly to her surgery and give her the chance to keep being the loving, loyal companion we depend on. Thank you in advance for your kindness and support for our sweet girl.
