Hello! My name is Ralph Stover and I am the parent of two sweet long-haired dachshunds. Unfortunately, one of them, whose name is Tak, lost all function of his hind legs. He is now facing IVDD surgery, which is incredibly expensive.

On top of that, I am disabled due to a spinal cord injury, which makes it very hard for me to earn a living presently. Those of you who know me know how precious these little guys are to me as they bring me joy that helps me through these difficult times. I am asking for any donations you might be able to contribute to help me pay for this surgery. I am not one to ask for help, but in this instance, the alternatives are pretty grim. Thank you in advance and keep Tak in your healing wishes and prayers.
