New Knees for Carly Artist Trading Cards

[TinyUnicornFarm]

Hello everyone!
Thank you for taking the time to read this post. I am in need of a fundraising effort to help pay for the surgery of my Chihuahua-Pug mix, Carly.

Background on Carly:
Carly is a 1 ½ year old Chihuahua-Pug mix that we adopted alongside her sister. They were abandoned in a park at only a few weeks old and we adopted them from the Humane Society once they were old enough. She is a sweet little girl who is now termed the “princess” because…well she acts like one! When all the other dogs (her sister and our two boy Chihuahuas) get a treat, she waits on the couch until you bring her treat to her and sleeps on a pillow in between our heads on the bed. She is definitely a princess.

Carly suffers from a congenital disease known as “Luxating Patellas”. This basically means that her knees pop in and out as she walks. It causes discomfort and pain and we currently have her on joint supplements as well as pain control medications. Unfortunately, the only way to cure her of her issue is to have surgery on both of her hind legs to stabilize the patella (knee bone). This surgery is very pricey and comes with the tag of just about $3000. Because of this, we have decided to try to help raise money to cover her surgery cost.
This is Carly taken a couple of days ago:

What I am asking:
I am an artist by hobby and have decided to offer ATC (artist trading cards) in exchange for donations to Carly’s surgery fund. An ATC is a small card that I will draw any pony, doing whatever you’d like on. Here is an example I worked up:

I am asking a donation of $5 per ATC.
Each ATC will be signed by me, the artist, and will also have Carly’s paw print stamped on a piece of paper separately with the card to thank you for the donation. I will also post pictures on here of each ATC with Carly so you can see that you really are making a difference for her!

Thanks so much for doing that! n.n

She is a pug chi mix. So she's definitely not a deer chihuahua. She has a brother ( not kin but another chi we adopted) that is a deer head and a pure bred apple head chi brother ( also not kin, I got him for free from a lady I worked for)
