Guinness needs help!

Guinness
(my darling black lab) had emergency surgery this past Saturday. She
had a growth on her liver that burst and was bleeding into her belly.
It was touch and go all weekend but she made it through surgery and is
stable enough to come home soon. She is at UPenn in ICU right now and
they are absolutely fantastic there. My baby has been through a lot.
She came to me through lab rescue as an 8 week old puppy who was about
to be drowned by her back yard breeder b/c she was the runt and "not
even pet quality". She has had 2 orthopedic surgeries and 2 mass cell
tumors removed in her 8 years of life. I thought we were finally in the
clear and over all her obstacles. So far the prognosis looks good and
she can go back to chasing sticks, swimming in the creek and running
away from the cat!



I got together enough money to leave the 50% deposit of $3000
(barely) but am now scrambling for the rest. I'm trying to convince my
credit card company to up my limit so I can at least get her out of
there and home with me. I normally do not ask for help but I don't know
what else to do. Her past vet bills have left me with a $10,000 credit
card debt but there was no way I wasn't going to do the surgery and let
her die after all she has been through. I know we always donate for our
fosters and ones that come through our different rescues so I'm asking
please for a little help with my baby. Thank you all in advance!!!

The balance I owe is $2250.00 but I set this at $100 so I don't
lose any donations. If I recieve any donations in excess of the cost,
they will be donated to UPenn's Shelter Animal Medicine Program.
