Life-saving Heart Surgery for Tequila

TEQUILA NEEDS YOUR HELP

Tequila is a tiny shelter dog that was born with a heart defect called a Patent Ductus Arteriosus  or PDA.  Dogs with this abnormality go into heart failure at a very young age - often before their first birthday.  Fortunately there is a surgical procedure that can correct this and save Tequila's life.  And it doesn't just buy her time.  A successful surgery means Tequila has the same chance at a normal life as dogs born without this defect.  

The only things preventing Tequila from a long, healthy life are time and money.  Tequila needs the surgery now - before she goes into heart failure.  She's already two years old, so there's no time to waste.  

The surgery and diagnostic imaging will cost roughly $4,000.00.  Tequila doesn't have an owner to pay for it, and her shelter doesn't have the resources to be able to devote that much money to one dog - even one as cute as Tequila.  She needs our help.

If Tequila gets the surgery, she becomes an adoptable dog with a long and happy future ahead of her.  Without the surgery she will die.  It's that simple.  Please help us raise the money to save her.
