On January 14th I took my Sweet Zoey who was pregnant and sick to Iowa State Small Animal Clinic.  I was told before I went that they would take payments.  They took her in the back and returned to say the bill would be 7000-10,000 just to work with her.  She had Toxemia from pregnancy.  I was devastated anyone that knows me knows I put all my love into my animals and especially my dogs. I did not have $ 7,000 - $ 10,000.  I cried all day calling every person I could think of to save and  keep Sweet Zoey and the babies.  I was harassed all day by staff trying to get me to Give up Zoey to the clinic and was told an organization could help her. They even called me into a room with 4 women to harass me into giving up my baby. Clearly they do not know the pain of those of us that don't have riches in emergencies.  They looked down on me like I was trash because my sweet girl was sick.  I am not trash I love and adore my dogs and especially Zoey and her babies.  I have a disability and by 4 pm I was at 225/117 Blood pressure and so sick from worry and depression from not knowing what to do.  I called the man I got Zoey from hoping to help me make a decision I was in Duress.  I could not let my baby die, so in Great Duress and sadness I signed the form.  They immediately cut me off from my beloved Pet and the only thing that makes me smile like I never existed to her.  I have called every day to check on her.  They tell me they can't tell me how she is.  The organization that paid for her surgery says nothing about Zoey's mommies broken  heart and the sacrifice made.  its like I lost a child, I can't sleep, I can't eat, I feel hopeless and sad.  I know to some they may say Wow your nutts its just a dog..  But to me she is my family, her children are my dog Jig and Zoeys babies, my grand doggies.  They keep me company, love me unconditionally, forgive me when Im stupid, dont see ugly when I look like a mess, and they are so happy to see me when I come home and then follow me through the house.  I am broken.  I found an attorney today who is going to help me fight for Zoey and her puppies.  I need prayers.. My heart is empty and my house feels so dark and sad.  I need my girl home and my grand puppies.  Please I beg of anyone that has a few extra dollars to help my GO FUND me for Zoey and the babies.  I will need to have the funds to pay for her surgery to have the babies because she was sick.  If you love animals please donate and leave me a note.  I love you deeply for any kindness or help as this means the world to me and Zoey and her babies need to be with grandma :)  and her husband Jig  :)  Smiles.   Thank you so much!
