Maggie is a 11 year old Redbone Coonhound in Blacksburg, VA, who needs $1,900 for Cancerous Tumor Diagnostics and Surgical Removal.

This fundraiser is made for Dave- a homeless senior disabled veteran- who is living out of his small car with his service dog Maggie. Dave is an air force veteran, Maggie served as a bomb sniffing dog in Afghanistan, and they met when he received her when she retired. They are best friends and she is his motivation during these difficult times.

Maggie has 4 tumors which upset her but only 1 of them is cancerous. The priority is to surgically remove the cancerous tumor before it spreads and it's too late, and the uncomfortable one. The estimate was received from "All for Paws Animal Clinic" in Blacksburg, VA. It would also be great to help Dave cover the diagnostic cost since he used money he initially saved for a hotel room.

Maggie is a friendly, sweet girl. She loves cuddling, and will almost always roll on her back to enjoy some belly rubs. Maggie enjoys laying in the grass under the sun while Dave tries to raise money to get himself a home, while also providing for her necessities. When she was diagnosed Dave sent me this text: "Noa I can't lose Maggie. If any of your friends could help I would be very grateful."

Dave became homeless after not filing his taxes during the 3 years his wife was dying from cancer. The IRS took away his retirement funds leaving him with $600 a month that he has been using for monthly IRS pay-back payments, Maggie's needs, and occasional motel stays.
