Help Sampson get X-rays and treatment — Goldsboro, NC

Sampson is a gentle giant and such a big baby. My sweetheart, very protective and so loyal. He loves everybody and everybody loves him. I could've not ask for a better friend. During his birth his mom was exhausted so I helped break his sack. Saw him take his first breath. He was so adorable I fell in love and promised to take care of him till his last breath if I could.

I noticed he was limping and when I checked his paws I couldnt see anything. I thought, maybe arthritis? It had worsen the next day. His paw and leg were swollen real bad. I took off to the vet but was only able to afford the walkin and antibiotics. He needed an x ray another $300 I couldn't afford. We were sent home nothing else they could do. By morning his paw was so swollen blood was seeping out. He not able to walk and I'm afraid were the battle.

In every moment of my life for the last 13 yrs Sampson has brought so much joy and happiness. The peace I feel when I'm home alone with him, I know I'm safe. I saw him come into this world. His first breath first steps. All his first, till the last I promised. Seeing him suffer and in pain is most devastating and to be unable to help him makes me feel hopeless and sometimes worthless that I can't come up with enough money to care for him properly. He's been apart of me for so long my heart is breaking

I popped my knee getting him in or out of the truck on the way to the vet so both of ours legs gave out. In doing so I havent been able to go to work and cant come up with the funds on my own.
