Bella’s Story
Bella is a 3 year old mix of lab and pitbull. A very gently, loving girl, Bella lived with her owner since she was a pup, in what she thought was her forever home. Until one day, her owner decided to move and could not take Bella with her, as her landlord would not allow dogs. Besides, Bella was recently injured…she was bitten by a dog and in desperately trying to escape the vicious attack, she fell and seriously injured her knee. The vet bill would be sky high, so Bella’s owner decided that she would have Bella euthanized.
[p[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOl5bL-2E2k[/youtube]A relative heard about Bella’s owner’s plans and called the situation to several people’s attention. Though we are mainly a cat refuge, we couldn’t allow Bella to be put down. She is such a sweet and gentle dog. We found Bella a foster family, where she has been for the past 3 months. Unfortunately, Bella’s foster family cannot keep her indefinitely, but she is safe and loved right now. The problem is that Bella’s knee is completely shattered. She is being very brave but without her pain killers she is in a lot of pain. If she doesn’t have her operation almost immediately, she will suffer more complications. Also, the pain killers could take a toll on her organs, so she can’t be on them for too long.
Her vet bill will total between $1,300 and $1,500. We need to raise these funds, as PetitsPawz does not have the financial resources to pay this bill. Bella has already been through a lot. She is nervous around large dogs, due to the attack, she lost her forever home and will need to be moved to a new, hopefully permanent home. We would like to repair her knee and off the painkillers, so that we can concentrate on finding her that perfect family.
We cannot have the operation performed until the funds are raised. Any help will be greatly appreciated and tax receipts issued for all donations. Thanks to everyone who makes a contribution to help Bella. It is very much appreciated!
