Medical Emergency Fund for Emmett

At 13 years old, this senior Shih Tzu lost everything he knew.

When Emmett’s devoted guardian faced serious health challenges, they had to make a heartbreaking decision and turned to the local BC SPCA for help. Though his family loved him very much, they were unable to provide the long-term care he needed. Suddenly, Emmett found himself without the comfort and security of the home he had always known.

Now in our care, Emmett needs urgent medical treatment to help him feel his best. His mouth was in rough shape, and he required a major oral surgery to remove several decaying teeth. He also has a wart on his eyelid that’s been scratching his eye, making every blink uncomfortable. To help ease his pain, he’s on antibiotic treatment to make him more comfortable.

Emmett’s story isn’t just about loss—it’s about finding love again. Now in a foster home, he’s soaking up every moment of attention while he heals. He trots happily on walks, tosses his toys around with puppy-like excitement, and follows the 6-year-old in the home everywhere, just wanting to be close. Could you share your kindness with this sweet senior today to help him live out his golden years in comfort? 

Personal updates for Emmett will be provided to anyone who donates towards his care.

*Goal includes: Oral surgery, blood and urine tests, medications and daily care for Emmett until he is ready for adoption. If funds raised go above and beyond the needs of this sweet senior, your kind gift will help the next animal who needs urgent medical care.
