Cartwright is a 3-year-old Boxer in Saint Louis, MO, who needs $1,600 for Heartworm Treatment.

Cartwright was a foster turned adoption. He was in the shelter for 8 months before we got him. He was said to be aggressive but when I came to foster he laid his gaint head on my chest look up into my eyes and I knew Id be a foster fail adopted two days later it has been the best choice Ive ever made!

Cartwright will only sleep with me and it has to be right next to my face. He likes long walks and throwing ball in the park. He likes dog treats but prefers peanut butter or pizza. Hes only been with us for three months but hes part of the family it seems unfair that after such a hard like and 8 months in tje shelter that hes now sick and has to be crated keep from physical activity.

Cartwright is very scared of his sister brie the cat but he loves his vet and thinks they should have more dates but I told he we cant afford any dates right now. He loves his daddy Zack and daddy layden very much when they leave the house with out him it breaks his heart so he barks and crys to let the whole world know!

Cartwright was tested positive for heartworm. He isnt symptomatic yet. He hates his kennel and I can see why when you've spent 8 months in one at the shelter only let out twice to poop day, and no one wants to play with you because they think you look scary.

I'm self employed and already behind on rent and unexpected 1200 dollars will take me to long to come up with and still pay bills and food. I wish I didnt have to ask but I'm thankful for waggle and everyones help.
