Raiden is a 6-year-old Doberman in San Antonio , TX, who needs $1,300 for Tumor Removal.

I've had Raiden since he was a puppy & 1 year after I got my other Dobie Evee. I got Raiden to train to be a service dog/protection dog to help with my PTSD & back injuries. I trained him myself, I use to train dogs for the National Gaurd. He helped protect me in a life dangering domestic situation with my ex husband. He's been a great ESA for me as well. This dog does not leave my side.

Raiden is my & Evee, my other dobies best friend. We go biking and hiking every week that usually ends with a trip to the dog park or McDonalds for burgers. Raiden loves the water! He likes to play fetch and jump into the lake. Since moving to Texas we live less than 2 hours fro. A beach and go every month. He loves running to then from the waves lol. Also the Jeep ride with the top off.

If he wants something he will vocally tell me. If there is something wrong with me he will not leave me alone until I am smiling again. He will not lay down unless he is able to touch me or be right next to me. He also knows when I am having back trouble and need help up the stairs. He makes me feel safe. I also make him feel safe I am his thunder buddy.

I noticed a bump that was growing on him took him to the vet and they said it was a fatty tumor nothing to worry about. I noticed it growing a little bit more rapidly brought it back in and paid to have it tested and it came back cancerous.

Waiting too long can reduce his lifespan as the tumor is growing. I paid over $400 to get the test done and Just paid $200 for his shots. Since there is no payment option available and I did not get approved for financing without help would take me 3 months to have the money
