Hi, my name is Naomi Rojas Morales, and I’m urgently asking for help to save my sweet dog Snoopy, a 12-year-old dachshund who’s currently hospitalized at the Pet Emergency & Specialty Center of Marin.

Snoopy suddenly lost the ability to use his back legs, and the vets suspect IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease) — a serious spinal condition that can cause permanent paralysis and loss of bladder control without emergency surgery.

He’s currently being hospitalized for an MRI and evaluation to make sure that he’s stable enough. Without treatment, he may never walk again.

The estimated total cost is between $11,000 and $17,000.

I’m doing everything I can — applying for grants and contacting nonprofit organizations.

Snoopy has been with me since he was just a tiny puppy. He’s grown up with me through all the chapters of my life. He’s my baby, my best friend, my shadow. I’m completely broken seeing him in pain and unable to walk. But I know he’s still fighting — and I will, too.

If you can donate — even the smallest amount — or simply share this page, it would mean everything to me and Snoopy. I’m truly grateful for any support you can give.

Thank you so much,

Naomi & Snoopy
