About this campaign

Baxter is the sweetest boy, he never meets a stranger loves everyone! He has been a wonderful blessing to our family. I became Baxter's dog mom when my friend and neighbor who owned Baxter passed away, and everyday I have been able to spend with him has truly been a blessing. He loves running in the yard, getting his yummy apple and sweet potatoe treats, playing fetch any chance anyone will throw the ball, he loves cuddles and most of all belly scratches, he would gladly accept anytime for as long as you are willing to do it. He means a great deal to our family and his cancer diagnosis has devastated our family. The thought of this sweet boy being in any pain absolutely breaks my heart.

Baxter has been diagnosed with 4 small mast cell tumors, his veterinary team has recommended surgery to remove the tumors in hopes of them not being able to spread on his body or internally. The Open Door Veterinary Care is our wonderful vet, and is who diagnosed Baxter, fine needle aspiration has been done to confirm his diagnosis is cancerous. The cost for his surgery is estimated at $2800 which I am trying desperately to gather in hopes I will be able to take him for surgery sooner rather than later.

Baxter is my 5-year-old best friend and a beloved part of our family. He brings so much love, comfort, and happiness into our lives. Now that he has been diagnosed with 4 Mast Cell Tumors, we’re doing everything we can to give him the chance to recover and keep making memories together.

I am a single mother of 2 children so finacially there is not much wiggle room for extra expenses in by budget. Baxter has been diagnosed with 4 Mast Cell Tumors and urgently needs surgery. The cost of his life-saving treatment is more than I can afford on my own, so I’m asking our community for help. Any donation or share can bring us closer to getting Baxter the care he needs.
