Hello.

If you know me, you know of my dog, Buster. He has been with me for a decade now. I found him in Bristol, TN in the median of a highway after he was hit by a car. He recovered well, and has been by my side since, perfectly healthy. Recently, he has developed tumors on his left side that our veterinarian suspects are cancerous. On top of this, he has an infection in his top back teeth making it increasingly difficult for him to eat properly. The only solution to this is to remove the problem teeth and move fully into a soft food diet. In order to give him the best outcome possible, we would need to combine surgeries for both the tumors on his side, and the infection in his mouth, to decrease the side effects of anesthesia and reduce the chance of death, given his age. My heart is broken and I am in denial. It hurts to have to write this. If you are able to help in anyway, I am begging for you to. I will contact my veterinarian at Oak Creek Small Animal Clinic to see if payment can be taken over the phone for those of you who are local and willing to donate, or for those not comfortable donating here. Thank you for hearing me.
