Chloe Elizabeth, the Dog of the Day
Name: Chloe Elizabeth
Age: Seven and a half months old
Gender: Female Breed: Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
Home: USA
 
   Chloe is fighting to survive against impossible odds having been diagnosed with a terminal, congenital disorder at 4.5 months old called renal dysplasia. At only 4.5 months and six pounds, for multiple lab results and an ultrasound exam to be as abnormal as hers is unconscionable, as is the reality that this illness has but one hope: kidney transplant. After talking with leading specialists in the field we have decided to created ChloeElizabeth.org to raise awareness about renal dysplasia, congenital (something one is born with) disease, improper breeding and puppy-rearing conditions, and in the hopes someone will step forward and help support our quest for a donor. I also hope this page can help others find donors or simply bring warmth and joy through her photo collection of warm memories.

    While her daily management can take its toll on caregivers as well as dogs, Chloe Elizabeth is as spunky, feisty, spirited, affectionate, funny, loving, and adorable as can be. She prefers human beings to toys any second of any day, thrives on human connection, and gives comfort and joy to all she meets. It is in her spirit and inherent ability to help and better others that her facebook page, and website were created as well as in honor of all the people she may never get to comfort with her charm, warmth, intellectual and emotional acuity, and genuine sweetness. She is an inspiration and this disease (as does canine renal failure in general), warrants further attention, more effective treatments and better outcomes.

    This video captures Chloe's spirit. It's 52 seconds of hysterical laughter yet you'd never know she was undergoing four hours of lab tests at the vet. It's inspiring, funny, and upbeat (nothing depressing).
