Paralyzed Dog - Please Help!!

Please donate to help Boomer get an MRI

While I was out of town for Christmas, I got the news that my dog Boomer had a freak accident which ultimately has left her paralyzed in her rear legs and tail. While it appears she cannot feel any pain, she is no longer able to move freely on her own.  The Vets are unable to diagnose the cause without an MRI. I am a full time student at the University of Utah working part-time, and I can't afford the $1,800 for the MRI.

Along with being paralyzed, Boomer has lost control of her bladder and bowels and needs constant care. I've already put almost $1,000 on credit cards and have completely wiped out my emergency savings paying for vet bills and supplies to care for her.

Luckily, I've been on winter break from school and have been able to care for her 24/7 since this happened, but school starts on Monday and I don't know what I'm going to do. I hate to leave her locked up in her kennel all day, but I have no other choice. :(

I rescued Boomer from the Companion Golden Retriever Rescue in 2009. She's been by my side ever since. Literally. She follows me everywhere and is always near me, lol. She's always been there for me thru everything and I want to be there for her now. She has such a big heart and a great spirit. She's such a good dog and friend and is always so happy. She loves people and she stole my heart away the first day I got her. It breaks my heart to see her like this. I don't want to lose her.

Please help. Even $1 would be greatly appreciated. Or if you can't donate, please share this on facebook, tweet it, snapchat it (I think that's what the kids are doing these days) and help get the word out! Thank you to everyone who reads this, shares this, or donates. We truly appreciate it, and with just one look into her eyes, you'll know that she is thanking you from the bottom of her heart.


All of the donations will go towards Boomer's MRI, medical expenses, supplies she needs, and her care.
