Maverick needs your help!

Donation protected
Hello everyone, my name is Katey and this is my sweet 7 month old, Rottweiler Maverick. He needs an MRI and surgery. Im not one to ever ask for help but I come to you all now because the cost of this is just to high for my family to handle alone.
Our Journey with Maverick started with a trip to our normal vet because he was limping on his right front paw(10/19). Our vet chalked it up to "growing pains" and gave him pain meds didn't even spend 10min examining him. Two weeks later he was still limping. I called our normal vet (again) and they said Id have to leave my puppy with them all day (no food or water) because they wanted to put him under to do an x-ray. I didn't agree with this soooooo... I took him to a different vet for a second opinion and x-rays without putting him under(11/1). This Vet (love her) took a lot of time looking him over, testing reflexes and eventually doing X-rays. Their Radiologist called me that night to let me know nothing was broken or fractured and his x-ray showed nothing to cause his limping. She said everything looked normal. That was great to hear right? WRONG! She now believed it to be neurological. She gave me a list of specialists to call. I got in touch with WVRC in Waukesha, WI and set up a consultation (11/29) . After more tests two neurologists came in and spoke with me. More BAD news. Maverick is noticeably limping and not at all steady on his feet. 3 of his legs are affected by what they believe is fluid on his spine. They need to do an MRI to see how bad his spine is being affected and make sure his brain is ok. They know there is something going on between his front shoulders and his brain. He is a happy Sweet boy that will need surgery to live a long happy life. This is where I need all of you to help us so this is possible for him. Every little bit helps even prayers
Thank you so much.
Ill keep you all updated on out journey as we continue this long path and more missed work days.
