In 2017 my 9 year old daughter Chels, and I, had to move far away from friends and family and being separated from her older sisters traumatised Chels. She has asked for a pet ever since arriving and our landlord has finally agreed to us having a dog on the conditions we pay £600 deposit - to cover any damages plus £100 admin fee. We were already having to save up to cover the adoption fees for the rescue centre as well as other essential costs.

I have promised her a dog as I believe it will help with her emotional recovery and feeling of safety - not forgetting all of the other benefits a pet dog brings -plus it will be a perfect addition to our little family.

If we can raise enough money we can pay the landlord his £700; pay the rescue centre their fees of between £100-200; buy the doggy essentials necessary for home so that the dog feels welcome and loved as soon as it arrives and, if there's enough left over, pay towards pet insurance so that our monthly installments are lower during the first year.

PLEASE HELP MAKE CHELSEY'S DREAM COME TRUE
