I think scammers need more convincing stories if the expect such things to work.
I'm sorry you think I'm a scammer. I understand how under these circumstances you and probably others may think that.
No, I am not a scammer. I'll be honest, I am just a little desperate. My name is Vickie Fan, I am 21 and live in Compton, California. I am a full time student and trying to be a full time worker at my part time job in order to make enough hours to obtain more money to pay for my dogs surgery.
I figured a dog message board would be a good place to find help because I assume that people here love dogs as much as I do. My cell phone is filled with hundreds of pictures of my two dogs, Tuffie and Tucker. I have come to realize that for the rest of my entire life I will own at least one dog. They are my children and unfortunately I am in no place to own children because I can't cover my Tucker's surgery costs. The estimate I got from the vet yesterday is between $5,376.00 and $7,445.00. (I can scan this and show you if you want more proof). Yes, of course, I am going to use my student loans but that still will only cover for half of it.
I'm not asking for a lot of money. Maybe just 25 or 50 cents. I have tried other message boards too but many of them probably thought I was a scammer too and omitted my thread. I'm sorry if I wasn't detailed enough before. I just figured people were more likely to read it and respond if the story was not too long.
Thank you everyone else for you kind words and your suggestions. I am definitely up to considering all possibilities. But no matter what, I would like my dog to have his sight. He is 4 years old and he love to play fetch but he can't anymore. When I take him to the dog park I can only roll the ball along the ground within 3 feet of him and I have to make sure that he can hear it. This is all just for his sake.
If anyone wants to see a couple videos of Tucker you can either go to the facebook group my boyfriend has made for Tucker at

There should be a link on the side to lead to the other video.
I'm sorry the videos are of Tucker when he was a pup and don't have sound. I'm working on making some more (with sound).
