Hello, friends!
Our sweet dog, Clementine, is having a big dental surgery this Friday, October 25th. She has had bad teeth for quite some time; some have fallen out already, and those she still has cause her a great amount of pain, and she cannot eat solid food comfortably. Recently, we also found out that due to the state of Clementine's gums, she is more vulnerable to infection that could cause larger problems if not addressed.
I adopted Clementine 9 years ago in October 2015. She comes from the Soi Dog Foundation, who rescues dogs from the Thai dog meat trade. For those of you who know her—you know she is full of love and energy, despite her age—now, 12 and a half years old. She’s always been a super sweet girl, full of smiles—especially if there’s a treat around. We're hoping to keep her beautiful spirit alive and healthy for as many more years as we can by making sure she gets the care she needs.
As you can imagine, the pre-operation screenings, surgery, and follow-up care are quite expensive, and it’s more than we had anticipated. Any help towards covering the costs with Clementine’s surgery, we are eternally grateful. Any amount, no matter how small, is greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this, and for any support you can give—whether it’s through a donation, a share, or just sending some love our way. We are so lucky to have caring friends and family and a community of support for our girl.
With love and gratitude,
Joshua, Robin & Clementine
