Companion Love

Love and Support on 4 Legs

Throughout her breast cancer journey, Tiffany was lucky to have two loving pups by her side. The late Ezili, a 3 lb Yorkie, was with her throughout all of her bouts with breast cancer and treatments.

When Tiffany was diagnosed with breast cancer a second time, she felt the need to nurture. She adopted a second pup, the late Pinky, a 3 lb Chihuahua. Pinky was the official pup ambassador for PinkChoseMe.

Now Tiffany is now the pet parent of Elliot, a Cock-A-Chon, and Willow, a German Shepherd. They are digital security for PCM.

Having pups around you during an emotional battle with any illness lends comfort only a loyal pup can give you. Ezili and Pinky were the best security blankets I could have.
