Hi everyone, I’m writing this with a very full heart on behalf of my dear friend Tiffini. Her sweet girl Copper was recently diagnosed with lymphoma cancer, and it has been absolutely devastating. Copper isn’t just a dog — she is Tiffini’s constant, her comfort, and her family. Over the past few incredibly difficult years, especially after the loss of her mom, Copper has been the one steady presence in her life. She’s been there through grief, uncertainty, and loneliness, offering unconditional love when words weren’t enough. Anyone who has met Copper knows how gentle, loving, and special she is. She has touched so many lives simply by being herself. Right now, Tiffini is doing everything in her power to give Copper the best possible care and quality of life. That includes navigating treatment options, specialist consultations, medications, and transitioning Copper to a high-protein diet to help keep her strong and support her body as she fights this disease. As you can imagine, the emotional toll is heavy — and the financial burden adds another layer of stress during an already heartbreaking time. To help support them, I’ve created a GoFundMe so that Tiffini can focus on loving and caring for Copper without having to face this alone. Any contribution, no matter how small, will go directly toward Copper’s medical care, treatment, medications, and nutritional needs. If you’re not able to donate, please know that sharing this, sending love, or keeping Copper in your thoughts means just as much. Thank you for taking the time to read this and for surrounding Tiffini and Copper with compassion during such a painful moment. With so much gratitude, Melinda P.
