Tootsies Battle

Donation protected
Hi everyone, I have created this GoFundMe page on behalf of my Mom. One of her puppies (Tootsie) began vomiting twice a week, and started loosing weight drastically. One night Tootsie began to have seizures unexpectedly, the next day she seemed unaware of her surroundings and started hiding/isolating herself from the rest of the puppies. After the third time this happened, Tootsie became very dizzy and could not maintain to keep her balance while she stood up or walked. My Mom took her to the vet, and they decided to keep Tootsie in observation all day and do blood work.  Tootsie still needs additional test, studies, and a surgery to help her liver. The veterinarian suggested Tootsie has Portosystemic Shunt "PSS". PSS is an abnormal vein connecting the blood supply returning from the intestines to the vein returning blood to the heart, bypassing the liver (shunting). This is Tootsies birth defect and will only get worse as she gets older. The funds will go towards any tests, studies, and surgery she needs. Any help would mean a lot to my Mom and I. Thank you for the support and time taken to read Tootsies Battle. We appreciate it so much.
