My name is Valentina, and I am raising funds for my dog, L’Amour.

L’Amour is not just a pet to me, she is family. She has been by my side through so much, and until this sudden crisis she was still full of life, strong, loving, and very much herself.

She has now become acutely unwell and is suffering from what may be a serious spinal or neurological condition. She is in pain, has already been seen by vets, and we are now trying to get her urgently referred for specialist assessment and further treatment. Although she has managed to pass urine and stool, with a support I got for her to get her up, and has eaten a little, she is still in pain and needs more help as soon as possible.

I am doing everything I can for her, but the cost of specialist consultations, scans, pain management, treatment, and follow-up care is far beyond what I can manage alone. That is why I am asking for help.

Every donation will go towards L’Amour’s urgent veterinary care, including specialist referral, diagnostics, medication, and any treatment she may need next. If you are not able to donate, sharing this fundraiser would also mean so much to me.

This is incredibly hard for me to write, but I do not want to give up on her without trying everything I reasonably can. L’Amour means the world to me, and I just want to give her the best chance possible.

Thank you so much for reading, for caring, and for any support you can give.
