Springer is a 9-year-old Mix in Aurora, CO, who needs $2,000 for Soft Tissue Surgery/Mass Removal.

I was gifted Springer back in 2010 from a "puppies4 sale" sign on the side of the road. Named after the company a dear friends late father worked for. 7 years later I got him a sister named Stella. They have been thick as thieves since day 1 & him my rock through all of lives ups &downs Springer has moved to many states with me but is now in Denver w/ his sister, my best friend and I.

Both Springer & his sister Stella sleep in my bed and are kind enough to save me some space :} He has greeted anyone who walks through the door with a shoe since he was a pup. If no shoes are available anything he can grab & gift you with will work. He loves to sunbathe or people watch on the balcony & if not there he'll be found snuggling with us or our guests. To know Springer is to love him.

Springer is very vocal & also very attentive & protective of me. If he hears me sniffling he comes running with kisses thinking I'm upset & crying. He still runs & jumps into his human dad's arms he's 6'4. & wrestles with his sis daily. He has some pretty hilarious butt, jump, spin ninja moves. He is very much still a puppy at heart & his youthful resilient spirit calms any chaos around him.

Springer has a large tumor on his back upper right leg. Its been diagnosed as a malignant soft tissue sarcoma & is growing rapidly. The size has tripled since his diagnosis. After much research I found the C.A.S.E center in Boulder Dr. Prpich has a treatment plan that I'm very confident in. The mass will be surgically removed & follwed up with outpatient care. Time is extremely important.

I was laid off in Jan from a ProjectManager position. 3 weeks later my car completely broke down. I waited 17 weeks for any unemployment to come. "Over qualified" for jobs + lack transportation caused issues but am now employed & finally caught up but w/no extra funds left
