Urgent Help Needed for My Emotional Support Dog, Scrappy

Hi, my name is Kaylie, and I’m reaching out with a full heart and a humble request for help—for my dog Scrappy, my emotional support, my best friend, and truly my whole world.

Scrappy is 9 years old, and for nearly a decade, he has been my constant. He’s not “just a dog.” He’s my family, my comfort, my stability, and the one being who has never left my side. I know loss is a part of life—but I cannot accept losing him early to a treatable condition.

Why Scrappy Means Everything to Me

I got Scrappy when I was 21, during one of the hardest chapters of my life. I didn’t always have stability, but a kind family took me in, made sure I wasn’t hungry, and gave me a safe place to land. When their puppies were old enough to leave their mother, they gave me Scrappy.

From that moment on, we chose each other.

I’m now 30, and for the last nine years, Scrappy has been my family. I’ve done everything in my power to care for him—keeping his vaccinations current, cooking his meals myself, and surrounding him with love every single day. He depends on me… and I depend on him.

Why This Is Urgent

Scrappy is now suffering from severe dental and gum disease, and it has reached the point where he is clearly in pain. Dental disease isn’t just uncomfortable—it can lead to dangerous infections, organ damage, and life-threatening complications if left untreated.

He needs help now.

Waiting any longer risks his health—and possibly his life.

What the Funds Will Be Used For (Full Transparency)

Here is the breakdown of Scrappy’s required care:

• Dental X-rays: $200

• Dental cleaning: $450–$1,000 (depending on findings)

• Tooth extractions: $800–$1,500

This procedure is absolutely necessary to relieve his pain and prevent infection from spreading.

Our Goal

The total estimated cost is $1,500–$2,500, depending on X-ray results.

Every single dollar raised goes directly to Scrappy’s veterinary care.
