Mickey Mouse is a 11 year old Mix-Breed in Braidwood, IL, who needs $2,000 for CT Imaging Spinal Study and Spinal Myelogram.

Mickey was 1 of 9 pups. Mickey was born deaf, blind in one eye and limited site in the other, along with 2 of his siblings. Mickey needs a second chance. He has learned to overcome his disabilities. He helps bring the bowls to the kitchen sink after they all eat. Mickey will also grab the bag of groceries, bring them in the house and put them by the sink. He loves sleeping in bed and cuddling.

Mickey has never had a medical issue until now. I'm not 100% sure what I'm dealing with, but tomorrow's surgery at Rusty Ridge in Minooka, will answer some of those questions. I've had disabled dogs in the past, so it isn't an issue. I need to know what it is, and, if it can be fixed surgically, with meds or something that will take time. My dogs are my family and I'm fully committed to them.

Mickey was born with a patch on his hind quarter that resembles Mickey Mouse, and so he was named. Mickey loves long stuffed toys. His favorite is his caterpillar. He loves his head to be scratched and belly rubs. Mickey and sister Minnie both love running in the garden and playing hide and seek from me. He will cuddle up and share my head pillow. And if lucky I will not get pushed off the bed.

I am a senior citizen, disabled on a limited income. I keep up with regular vet visits and shots. Please help Mickey. He really deserves it. I just had to put his mama down .
