Tinkerbell is an 8-year-old female Shih Tzu and a beloved member of the family. In recent weeks she has had trouble walking. On October  12, 2017 Tink was diagnosed with a malignant mast cell tumor in her back leg. This condition is treatable, yet very serious and painful to the point where Tinkerbell cannot walk or even stand. The tumor was removed on October 16, 2017. Tink has a long recovery ahead of her and might need chemotherapy. All donations will be used to pay medical bills, which are already in excess $1500. Any support is greatly appreciated and will help Tink kick cancer's ass. She is a strong, smart, and tough little dog. We look forward to helping her be able to have the strength to stand, walk, and hopefully chase squirrels again soon.
