On February 13, 2017 this beautiful pup and her family's life was changed. At 10:10 am Arya and her owner Grace went to the vet to do a simple checkup for an ear infection Arya had a couple weeks before. During the process of getting her into the vet clinic Arya escaped from her collar and ran off frightened of the vet. Arya's owner, Grace, looked for Arya on highway 49, behind buildings and walked two canals in Auburn CA until 6 pm that night. There was no sign of her beloved pup. Arya is a black lab blood hound mix and disappeared into the night. Grace was devastated that she could not find her. She posted on Facebook but no one found miss Arya. Around 6:45pm a horrible thing occurred. Arya jumped out in front of a car on highway 49. Thank god the car slowed down and barely hit Arya. We called animal control and watched Arya run behind some buildings and waited with her while she laid there under a car. Arya did not have a collar as she escaped it earlier at the vet clinic. We tried to help her as much as possible. We gave her a bone and some water in hopes she was fine. While waiting for animal control, out of nowhere, Arya took off back down the street. In horror, we watched Arya get hit by a dark F150 on highway 49. This time, Arya was NOT okay. Her legs were crippled underneath her and she was gushing blood from her mouth. Arya's black fur was scraped off by the road. This poor girl was in so much pain and shock. The driver of the F150 did not stop. However, there were many good "earth angels" there to help us stop traffic on such a busy highway so late at night. Thank you Bill, Melody and Brad for helping stop oncoming traffic and loading Arya into the truck to transport her to the vet clinic. Arya is a 105lb, 2-year-old pup. We got her to the vet and they had to transport her on a doggy stretcher to keep her steady. Arya was in so much shock but was still being such a strong beautiful pup. Her owner was called and fortunately was able to take Arya to Loomis Basin Vet hospital. Immediately, Arya needed pain meds, x-rays, fluids, ultrasounds to make sure her organs and bladder were intact and bandages to treat her road rash. This initial cost was $2200 from Grace (Arya's Owner). We were notified at 11:00pm that Arya had a shattered pelvis and severe dislocated hips along with no rectal tone. Arya needs major orthopedic Surgery. 02/15/2017 Arya's 1st surgery will repair her two right side major hip fractures. Then Thursday she will regain strength and rest. 02/17/2017 Arya will go into surgery again to repair her left side fracture. The estimated cost for surgery will be about $10,000-$15,000. This does not include the hospital fees for each night stayed which is about $2,200-$2,500 a night plus additional needs to keep Arya stable.

Arya's mother Grace has had her since she was born. Arya fit into Grace's hand when she first met the world. Arya means so much to Grace, her grandson Mike and her whole family. Grace has been through so much in her life already. She has raised all of Arya's family from the moment they came into this world. Arya fills the house with joy by playing with her sisters and mother. Including her feline siblings. Arya takes up Graces bed at night and keeps her warm. Without Arya, Grace and her family will be missing apart of them. The finances are tough and anything will help. Please help support this loving family and their beautiful Pup that deserves a fighting chance. All of these funds will be for medical costs for Arya. Please help support Arya's journey to recovery. Thank you so much!
