Junior's Medical Fund
Donation protected
Hello. My name is Junior and I'm a dapple dachshund in the prime of my life – 3 years old. I love performing tricks in front of large audiences, chasing rabbits and of course… chasing girls.
On June 18th, I suffered an injured vertebra above my left shoulder. It’s hard to tell exactly where the injury is on the x-ray but my doc says there appears to be collapsed disk spaces in both my caudal cervical spine and thoracolumbar area.

We were hoping the meds would fix me and though I've shown some improvement, my doc says I still need surgery.The entire treatment will include an MRI, operation and post-op care costing me around $8,000.
Right now, because of the meds, I sleep most of the day. When I get up to do my thing outside, I take tiny steps and walk like I’m drunk – my spine is still hunched. And though the video shows me in pain, it’s well managed and tolerable now.
Your donation will help me walk properly - may be even chase girls again.
Thank you!
