Hi Everyone

I met Gianna a little over a week ago as I was tasked to take her to the park, groomers, and the vet. She had a slight limp that we were concerned with. It was extremely evident after playing for long periods of time. To make it an understatement, she's the sweetest dog you will ever meet and has been dealing with this injury. It's so sad to see her try to play with other dogs and then have to deal with pain and soreness. I found out yesterday that she most likely has a torn ACL in her knee. UPDATE: SHE NEEDS TPLO SURGERY TO REPAIR THE TORN ACL AND PARTIAL BONE HAS TO BE REMOVED TO REPOSITION HER FEMUR TO AN APPROPRIATE ANGLE. THE DAMAGE TO HER SURROUNDING BONE IS PRETTY BAD. DOC STATED ITS BEEN LIKE THIS FRO 6 MONTHS TO A YEAR. RECOVERY TIME ISNT LOG, SINCE SHES YOUNG.

I

can't and will not stand by and let her suffer. I normally do not ask for help because I work hard 7 days a week, and I almost earn what I need to take care of my wife, daughter, 2 dogs, and 2 cats. It would take me a while to accumulate the money to ease her suffering. Especially since this is an injury that requires surgery, and we can not wait. Right now, she's the happiest girl because of her new loving papa. However, she's on bed rest and has a long recovery ahead of her. This isn't for me. This is for a beautiful girl who needs to live her life to the fullest. I hate to say this, but it's been hard on me! As I comfort her multiple times a day and it's so sad, I immediately start crying. No dog nor human should be this hurt and not get help. So I'm here asking for your hearts and whatever you can do to help.

Gianna and the family all thank you in advance.

Update: We have an appointment with the orthopedic surgeon on April 14th to see what further steps we need to take. Just a call from the doc!

-Funds will be allocated for blood work, the medicine, any additional x rays, the surgery, post op visits, and the dreaded costly anesthesia.

I assume we're looking at a 4-6 month recovery time. I'm open to any ideas, intellectual dog toys, treats, etc. Just imagine a 2 year old husky pup that can not go outside and play for 6 months. She'll need some type of stimulation.

Thanks again ❤️
