Tiny Mama Layla needs surgery ASAP!

Running as a stray, with another little chihuahua, on the streets of Norwalk, a very pregnant tiny, five-and-a-half pound dog was finally caught a few days ago with the other little chihuahua, probably a puppy of hers from a prior litter.

We rushed mama, now named Layla to the vet because we could see a little foot stuck, a puppy unable to get out. An emergency C-section was done, but unfortunately the one puppy died, but the other one, a little girl, made it! I had mama and baby and the other little boy chi all together at my house and all seemed fine, until Layla stopped eating and the puppy stopped nursing as she appeared to not have enough milk. We immediately got the pup to our very best bottle feeder and mama to a specialty vet where we just learned that she is bleeding internally and has a severe infection. At this point, the specialists at MASH need to go in and stop the bleeding.

The estimate quoted is between $2,935.00 and $5,937.95. This includes rescue discount.

Please see the picture and video of mama Layla and her baby and help us to save her by donating online here: https://theforgottendog.org/donate/

LIFE SAVING HEART SURGERY FOR TINY BUBBLES NEXT WEEK

 

Bubbles, a tiny four-pound Chihuahua pup of ten months old was rescued by our Vegas division, The Forgotten Dog L.V.

It soon became apparent that there was something wrong with her heart, and after bringing her to the cardiologist at ACCESS in Los Angeles we learned that she had a hole in her heart that needed to be closed (called a PDA). This is a life-saving procedure that will ensure that she will become a normal and healthy pup, who can lead a totally normal life post-surgery. We had a pup named Fiona who had this same surgery earlier this year and she was adopted and spends her days playing with her new brother, Bernie.

Bubble’s surgery is set for next Wednesday, September 18th, and the estimate for her surgery is between $4,414.90 – $4,584.90

We have raised some of the money but still need more.

Please help Bubbles live a healthy and happy life by donating here: https://theforgottendog.org/donate/
