Hi, my name is Miriam, and I am fundraising for my dog Max.

Max is only 5 years old, and from one day to the next, he lost the ability to walk. The veterinarian believes he has a serious disc herniation (IVDD). It breaks my heart to see him like this. He is usually very active and full of life, and now he can barely move.

Right now, he is on pain medication thanks to a veterinarian friend who is helping us, but this is only temporary. Max urgently needs an MRI and possibly surgery to recover. The total cost is more than $8,000, which I cannot afford.

I am doing everything I can, but I need help. Any donation, no matter how small, would mean so much to us and could give Max a chance to walk again and live a normal life.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support
