Short Summary

This is our baby boy Pom Pom, he will be 4 yrs old in February. He is our everything and we were just starting to get back on our feet with new jobs etc. and one of our foster dogs, thought he was a toy and picked him up and threw him around by his back legs. He broke his legs so badly that one needs to be amputated all together because of all the damage and the other there is only a 50/50 chance itcould be fixed after very intensive surgery but he would have to keep going through surgery to replace the plates that would be put in and for his sake we opted to go with amputation of both legs.

He is a trooper, even though he is in a lot of pain, he is our strong little boy and is fighting every step of the way.

However, he needs surgery as soon as possible due to damage of his back paws, the risk of sepsis is high and will be fatal to his life if they are not removed. 

We are a low income family and we rescue and foster animals. We are not ready to give up on him and neither is he and we desperately need help to raise funds to get him surgery.

No matter how much you donate, it will be everything to us and him because this is our baby. Please help us save him.

What We Need & What You Get

Break it down for folks in more detail:

We have one quote for $6k + we are trying to find someone else that will help too but it is needed asap. 
--- UPDATE: We have found someone to do it for less that includes after care but we will still need to save money afterwards for a cart for him.

-------------UPDATE: 
We have locked in a vet!!! Animal Samaritans quoted from $951 - $1550 for one leg including some after care!! We still need to make sure we raise enough for our supplies for after care at home and for his cart! So if we can try to get to $4k instead that would be amazing!!! Thank you so much everyone!!

We will do photoshoots and websites for the highest donators: 8daysaweekla.smugmug.com for samples and unlimited photos and all of the photos edited for each person that donates $500. Please help us save him.

The Impact

This will save our baby's life!
