Meena is a young stray dog living in India. She is a medium-small sized black and white dog with big adorable bat ears and playful, loving and sometimes mischevious personality. Meena's back right hip has been injured and she needs medical help. Instead she is living on the street, eating out of garbage cans, and being treated horribly by the people living in the area, she needs a safe home, people who love her, and medical care for her leg so she can get around better. I have decided that I can be that person. She can come back to the U.S. with me and join my family and meet her older dog brother Murray, who is 9. Unfortunately, I don't have the money needed to get her to the U.S. and meet her initial needs, though ongoing healthy care for her will be no problem once we get her there (I will be starting my nursing career in just a few weeks!) In the mean time, I am looking for some generous animal lovers who can help me get her checked-up and vaccinated so she can fly, and help with the cost of flying her to the U.S. I estimate this cost to be about $700-$800. I cannot put up this cost right now, but MUST leave India on Sept 12 to start my job. I do not want to leave her here, so I would really appreciate any help, no matter how small! Thank you so much.
