Cooper is a 9 year old Australian Shepherd in Temecula, CA, who needs $2,000 for Surgical Removal of a Sarcoma.

9 years ago I happened across a Craigslist posting for an Australia Shephard puppy. I met the lady at a local park and took the most adorable little puppy home that day. We named him Cooper. He has been the most loyal and intelligent pup. He always sits in the front seat of the car and never ventures far from his family.

Cooper has a mass on his chest that rapidly increased in size recently. Sky Canyon Animal Hospital has sent in an aspiration slide and they believe it is a sarcoma. Right now it is larger than a baseball and needs to be removed urgently.

Cooper is a smart boy. He can anticipate when his dad should be home from work and he greets him at the door everyday. Cooper loves his human kids- probably because they share their veggies with him. But his favorite person is his human mom. He loves their adventures together- especially going on hikes!

We never anticipated needing funds for emergency surgery to save our beloved pet from a cancerous tumor. I would mean a lot for us to be able to get this surgery done so there is less risk of it spreading further.
