Dax is a 5 month old Doberman Pinscher in Pompeii, , who needs $2,000 for Double or Triple Pelvic Osteotomy (DPO/TPO).

Dax, or as I like to call him Daxers, was hand selected from a little of 11 puppies by my husband Ben. My husband's dream dog is a Doberman, and after losing our 12-year-old lab to heart failure last winter, I decided to keep an eye out for one. My husband has been battling a new onset autoimmune disorder since May 2024 so our hope was to give him a more positive outlook on life with a new friend.

Dax was in an accident where he ended up with a compound hip joint fracture. We were told that due to his age, if we didn't get it corrected, he would more than likely need the leg amputated. He would need to see an orthopedic specialist due to the severity of the fracture, and if we wanted any chance at saving his leg, giving him the best outlook possible on life.

Dax is the biggest cuddle bug you'll ever meet. If you carried him around all day like an infant, he would be in heaven. He has such a goofy personality and everyone that meets him falls instantly in love.

Between my husband's medical expenses with trying to diagnose him, along with our two other dogs ending up with pyometra (6 months apart) and needing emergency surgery, both totaling around 5k, we have drained our savings. We just want to give him the best outcome possible!
