Muneca is a 5 year old Chihuahua. On the 4th of July she was frightened by fireworks and jumped from a 2nd floor window. Her forelegs did not break, but the ligaments were hyper-extended; her lower forelegs bent outward instead of back toward her body. This is a painful and debilitating condition that can be corrected with surgery.

Muneca’s owner is working with other organizations to raise much of what’s needed for the cost of surgery. IMOM has set a goal of donating $1300 to help this little dog. Can you help us reach that goal?

IMOM’s email address for direct Paypal donations is [email protected]. Be sure to let us know who your donation is for.

Please help Muneca by sharing a link to this page in social media, message boards, mailing lists, etc.

The bake/yardsale must have been a big hit, because all funds have been raised. You can take Muneca off your worry list. :) Her legs are getting treated.

LOL shes so cute. glad things worked out

Muneca had surgery and is home recovering. While it's too soon to know if she'll make a full recovery, she is lapping up love from her family.
Thank you to all who donated or spread the word.
