Bianca June

vet bills to date: $2550.77

Bianca is such a sweet Bichon/Poodle mix. She is about 10 months old. They were told at the shelter that she was turned into that she liked to "escape" so they were unable to keep her. We believe the reason they turned her in was because she has a grade 4 heart murmur.

She is still quite the pup. She loves to play with the other dogs in the household. She love to let the kiddos scratch her belly. She certainly has personality!

Bianca June is scheuled for surgery on Tuesday September 23, 2008. We have been able to raise the funds for it.

She was diagnosed with pulmonic stenosis. The only procedure available is to put a balloon ino the valve that leaves the heart and goes to the lungs.

We will keep you posted!!

Update!

Bianca had her surgery. The procedure worked for this little gal. They indeed put in the balloon and it did open the valve up. She came home to her foster home the very next day!

After a week's recovery period, Bianca June was adopted into a home that has a Bichon that also has a heart murmur. She is now enjoying playing with that little guy!
