Castor's road to recovery

 
This is Castor. He is a Chinese crested and has all the sass and happiness of any 3 year old pup. He is loved by me and my boyfriend Taylor and our 3 other pups. When he's not at work with me he is out on an adventure or lounging on our bed at home, which makes what has happened even harder knowing this will all change if he doesn't get the help he needs.Castor wokeup Tuesday morning with wobbly legs. Right away when his symptoms started we tried to get him into our regular vet and unfortunately they were booked. We then took him to another vet that was amazing in helping us. At this point Castor could no longer use his back legs. Unfortunately because of size we couldn't get into a k9 orthopedic near us. We took him to a specialist in Parker Colorado at an emergency neurological center. Their the vet told us he is partially paralyzed in his hind legs with a possible slipped disc. We were recommended to get an MRI and if we found he has a slipped disc he would need to have emergency surgery. Sometimes these things can be healed with rest and meds. We took him home as we couldn't afford anything more. The MRI itself is 4,000$ and the surgery with MRI can range between 8-10,000$. We are here asking for your help to make sure our little dude can get the help he deserves and needs. We are also seeking alternate routes like accupunture but with a bleek outlook on actually helping him. He is on lots of medications and resting for now. We know this is a lot of money and this isn't something we would normally do but we're doing this for him and we ask you to keep him in your thoughts if nothing else. Thankyou.
