My name is Jake. Shadow is my best friend who travels everywhere with me. On Sunday December 19th Shadow stopped using his hind legs after being on pain since Dec 7th (we went to the vet and he had pain meds). As a result we rushed to the emergency clinic monday the 20th, where he recieved x-rays, followed up with an MRI (turned out to have a 90% spinal compression), and then rushed into surgery. Im currently out of military service, going to school full time, and working full time. Shadow means the world, and every little bit helps
