Punkin needs help to have her right eye removed for $1700

We adopted Punkin from the shelter when she was a year old. She'd been in a house with 28 other dogs! Who knows how they'd been treated? I visited her at the shelter every day while she waited to be spayed. Finally, I could take her home. Hooray! She'll be 9 on June 1. Punky is our baby girl and she sleeps in bed with us every night. It's imperative that she has this operation. DC and I are retired and are living on our Social Security. That's why we are asking for your help. Anything that you could spare will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
