Maxwell is a four-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog in Landenberg, PA, who needs $2,000 for urgent hip surgery.

Maxwell is the heart and soul of his growing family. He has two human parents, a toddler brother, twin girls about to be born, and two kitty siblings.

And to make things even more hectic during this time, Maxwell needs urgent hip replacement surgery at Skylos Sports Medicine. He fractured his hip four years ago, and despite having two surgeries to fix it, he's developed dysplasia that is so severe that without a hip replacement, he may not be able to walk.

"Maxwell truly lives up to the gentle giant name attributed to the breed," Anastasia A., his human mom, tells Waggle. "We are certain that Maxwell will be a big help when we bring the tiny twin sisters home."

This is a financially difficult time for Maxwell's family, and they're frantically trying to raise the money for his life-changing surgery.

Can you help Maxwell walk without excruciating pain?
