Bruce is a 7 month old Mix-Breed in Apple Valley, CA, who needs $1,500 for Casting.

Bruce came into my life after I adopted his sister and found out that no one wanted to adopt him and he was going to end up in a shelter, so I immediately went to pick him up to be a part of my family. I already had a GSD named Jeff, and with Bruce and his sister Elsie, my pup family was complete.

Recently I came home from working a night shift at the hospital (I am a service representative, not a nurse or medical in any way) and noticed he was limping. I took him to the vet (Bear Valley Animal Hospital in Apple Valley, CA) and got X-Ray's. Found out he had a proximal tibia SALTER HARRIS 1 fracture involving his growth plate with displacement.

Bruce is a big boy with a bigger heart. He is very loving and loves to play with my 22 month old daughter and his two furry siblings Elsie and Jeff. He's a mama's boy and just loves cuddles. He is gentle and quiet, smart, and calm. He can get rowdy with his siblings and just wants to be involved when they play.

I'm a single mom with a mortgage, and not too long ago I was homeless. I worked very hard to stay afloat. My puppers are well taken care of: vaccines, well fed, loved. I am now $3000 in the hole with CareCredit, but I couldn't let him suffer and be in pain.
