Maximus is a 11 Year Old Pembroke Welsh Corgi in Portland, OR, Who Needs $2,000 for Thyroidectomy.

Maximus has been with me since he was eight weeks old and is my cherished companion. He’s an 11-year-old Corgi, the only pet in the home. Known by most as Max (and also “Cute!”), he’s sweet, playful, and vibrant—always ready to brighten any day with a wiggle and a smile.

Maximus was diagnosed with a thyroid tumor at OREV Veterinary Hospital. Surgery is urgent to stop it from spreading. Although he’s still happy and healthy, early treatment is critical to give him the best chance at a long, joyful life.

Max is a sweet, gentle soul who loves snacks, walks, and playtime. He follows me everywhere and brightens every day with his charm, humor, and love—he believes everyone is his friend. He’s resilient and has already beaten cancer once. He is truly a ray of furry sunshine and a blessing with four (very short) legs.

Maximus needs urgent surgery, costing at least $5–6K, far beyond my means as someone living on a fixed income due to disability. Your support will help him recover and continue living a joyful life while brightening everyone’s days.
