On July 7th my family's 6 year old daschund  Oscar started having soreness in his back and trouble walking. We were told by vets to let him rest and try to keep him still. However on Friday the 17th he lost all feeling in his back legs. He is now unable to walk or go to the bathroom. He is in incredible pain. After contacting the veterinarian and getting an x-Ray we were told that he has a calcium buildup pushing on his spine and that if he doesn't have surgery to release the pressure IMMEDIATELY it will cause damage that cannot be repaired. The local vets cannot perform such a surgery however, and we need to treacle to see a specialist.  Unfortunately this surgery is more than we can afford.  My mother and whole family are devastated. Especially his (big) little sister Belle. He has been with our family for 5 years and we love that little weirdo.


And now time is running out. We have very limited time to decide what to do and we desperately need your help. Any little bit you could spare would be appreciated beyond words. I just can't bare to see my little Oskie go.
