Hello, my name is Brandon Close and I am spearheading a fundraiser for Bailey, the most loving cuddly chocolate lab around. Bailey was having a glorious Saturday morning sprinting around the grass field when she came up limp. Unfortunately Bailey had suffered a torn acl and meniscus of her back left leg.

Bailey has the most loving parents (Brandon and Melissa) who are willing to do anything to help her although the surgery costing $5,000 is a highly unexpected financial burden. She needs to have this surgery to get back to chasing sticks and being the little black bear she is.

I am asking you all to reach within your hearts and help Bailey in any way you can. She does so much to make this world a better place with her warm cuddles and softest fur this side of the Mississippi. On behalf of Bailey and the Downs family we appreciate your generosity and willingness to help.
