Axel is a 1-year-old German Shepherd in Beaumont, TX, who needs $2,000 for surgery to repair a broken leg and pelvis.

My wife and I had been at the local animal shelter in Beaumont looking for a friend for our other baby Blu. Axle was all alone in a little box in the back room. They said that he was shy and timid. As soon as we saw him we walked up and his big ears stood up and he "waggle"-d his tail from the time we seen him to the time we brought him home.
