Chance "Oz" is a 6 month old Mix-Breed in Apple Valley , CA, who needs $2,000 for MRI and Neurology Diagnostics.

Hello, thank you for looking at our fundraiser. This is Chance. He's estimated at about 6-7 months old. At the end of August he was struck by a car, which fractured his spine and left him paralyzed in his back legs.

High Desert Animal Coalition paid his initial vet bills and I have been fostering him since, but he needs more care.

Chance is currently on pain management, but there is a possibility for surgery that could alleviate his pain by fixing the fracture in his spine. We took him to a neurosurgeon at VCA Ontario Veterinary Specialists for a consultation. In order to determine if going through with the surgery would help this little guy out, an MRI is needed to see if he is a good candidate. The MRI is about $2,000.

He's a happy little puppy who loves other dogs and cats, loves toys, car rides, walks in his wheelchair, and cuddles. He has tons of energy and wants to do all the puppy things.

I lost my job earlier this year, and the rescue has been at capacity for some time. The vet recommended euthanasia if we can't afford diagnostics to see if surgery may help. We want to at least get him the MRI to determine if we should go forward with the surgery.
