Help Make Tiggy's Back Surgery Possible

Hello. My sister Jessica Wheeler visited me and our dog over 10 years ago and fell in love with dogs. We didn't have them growing up. She began her rescue journey as soon as she returned home. Since that time, she has saved numerous loose dogs in her neighborhood of South Houston and either raised them herself in her home or found homes for them. She taught children how to work well with strays and volunteered with Barrio Dogs. She is suffering a cognitively debilitating disease and can no longer care for her dogs the way she used to. They need more than she is able to give now.

Tiggy is one of her favorites and even had portraits done with him. He has arthritis in his back so bad that it's now affecting his leg. He needs surgery. He is such a sweetheart and for such a big dog, is the most gentle. We really appreciate any help you can offer.

Because Barrio Dogs is a 501(c)(3) non-profit animal welfare organization, donations towards Tiggy's surgery are tax-deductible. Every contribution gets Tiggy closer to the pain relief and mobility he deserves. Please consider donating here through Gofundme or you can go directly to https://barriodogs.org/donate/ and mention "Tiggy's Surgery" in the memo line to ensure your donation goes directly to his care. 

Together, we can ease Tiggy's pain and help Jessica's pet get back on his feet.
