Sally girl has a mass in her chest.

Hello,

I am trying to raise money to help Sally girl get the care she needs.

This dog has been though hell and back and just turned 3.

Let's start from the beginning. She was raised in Texas where her first person didn't want Sally anymore and tossed her from a moving car. The result of this left this poor girl with a broken jaw and was living on the streets. She was rescued and given a surgery to repair her jaw.

The wonderful people from Our pack animal rescue brought her to Wisconsin. She was complete skin and bones when they brought her here. A friend of mine knew I have experience with blood hounds and asked if I would be interested. So my wife and I and our past dog Ruby went to meet Sally. She was such a sweet girl. However Ruby wasn't having it so we sadly had to pass.

Months later Ruby unexpectedly got sick and sadly passed away. My heart was broken.

I got a call a week or so later saying Sally came back cause they people who adopted her broke her leg and didn't want her anymore.

Now this dog has had a jaw surgery and a broken leg. But it's not the end. From the broken jaw she had fragments of bone in her sinus cavity. They removed a quarter size chunk from the upper gum line of her snoot.

Aside from now a broken jaw l, a broken leg and a surgery she still wanted to love and needed a home. So we adopted her

She came home late 2022 with us. Everything was going amazing.

Over time we noticed eyes getting gunky and sneezing and constant itching at her face. I checked her mouth and noticed the incision to remove the bone fragments was open and infected... Onto another surgery to flush all the infection out and repair and close the hole.

This surgery went well but the repair didn't last for more than a month.

We ended up having to take her to UW Madison vet to have a CT scan done and then get everything repaired and it was worse than expected. She had to have a few teeth pulled due to misalignment of her jaw, she had a root canal to save her from tooth, the wires used to align her jaw where protruding out and causing discomfort and irritation plus she had to have the hole fixed.

They did wonders. She finally got fixed up. On June 23rd she finally had her check up and had a good bill of health and was ready to finally be a normal dog.

About 2-3 weeks ago she stopped eating and this is a huge red flag as this dogs favorite thing is food. So I called out vet and took her in. They did blood work and a fecal test to find out she had/has colitis. But it was treatable. Antibiotics and should be back to normal. The next day I start the meds and she barfed them all up. Called the vet and took her back in. They gave her shots to try and calm down the upset belly. The next day she is no better and stopped drinking now. Now I take her in for x-rays to see if there is a blockage and they find a mass of fluid in her chest cavity. They need to biopsy it ASAP. The results came back as a high probability of cancer. She needed a CT scan to see how bad it is. At this point I have her admitted so the vets can give her IV support and meds. She stayed 3 days at the vet and all the findings are leading to this girl having cancer. They referred us to UW Madison and im afraid I can't pay for this visit after all we've just been through. I am currently going though a bad colitis flair up that has me off work. I have my basses listed to sell. I will stop at nothing to help this poor girl regain her life back. She has been though so much and finally has a Loving family and she deserves many more years to actually experience what love is.

If you can help us in anyways I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you so much
