Max is a 5 month old Yorkshire Terrier in Union, MO, who needs $4,500 for Leg Surgery.

I just got Max 4 weeks ago. He is 5 months old and already spoiled. Very playful puppy ful of energy and brings me so much happiness and helps with my anxiety.

Max fell out of my bed Friday night, I missed work and took him to the emergency vet. Xrays show he broke the back left tibia right below the knee and it requires surgery with pins and bracket or amputation of the leg. I do not not the funds for a surgery like this. They quoted me $4500 today at the orthopedic pet doctor. My vets office will not do it. To amputate it's around $1700.

I have cried and still crying over this. Breaks my heart. He brings so much joy and happiness to me and my grand kids when they visit. He loves playing ball and playing with the little kids. He loves snuggling and kisses.

I work for a small factory and make 17.00 an hour. I rent, pay basic bills but I don't have that sitting around with my own health (back issues) I have a job i can work with 2 slipped disc and bulging disc. I wish I made more. Max makes me happy and it breaks my heart
