LONDON — A dog owner in London is willing to give everything she owns just to save her beloved pet yorkie-chi Snoopy. <br /> <br />The Guardian reports that Dolly-Ann Osterloh met Snoopy, a yorkie-chihuahua, nine years ago, when she rescued him from a kill shelter in New Jersey. The poor pup had been abandoned by a family after Christmas, and found in a trash bin. Since his rescue, the pair have been inseparable. <br /> <br />But during a vet check up to assess Snoopy's breathing difficulties, he was diagnosed with mitral valve disease, and given only a few more months to live. <br /> <br />Poor little fella has had to take medication 11 times a day to help with his condition, and can only be saved through surgery. <br /> <br />Osterloh had chanced upon a pioneering treatment by a team of Japanese and French surgeons in Paris, that could reportedly restore Snoopy back to health. Problem is, the surgery costs an eye-watering 37,000 pounds and needs to be paid in cash. And even with her savings, a bank loan, and donations, Osterloh still came up short. <br /> <br />To make up the rest of the money, the 32-year-old former actress opened her London apartment for 24 hours and put all her belongings up for sale. <br /> <br />Thankfully, the tactic worked. Osterloh now has the money to pay for her precious pet's surgery, and may even have extra from her GoFundMe page. <br /> <br />Seems Snoopy is finally set for his September 19 surgery in Paris. Get well soon, buddy!
