Stevie is a 1-year-old German Shephard/Husky Mix in Cedar Park, TX, who needs $1,725 for orthopedic surgery to repair his fractures..

Stevie was given to us by a family who couldn't care for him anymore this summer. He loves to play with his big puppy brother Cooper who is at least 30 lbs heavier than him but a big baby who doesn't realize his size. Since day one they've been attached by the hip and do everything together, since our tragedy Cooper has been sad and depressed without his little brother.

Stevie is a really easy going happy pup who loves to cuddle and gives love any chance he can get. His cuddle hugs are as comforting as his soft fluffy coat. He's very fast, in fact faster than his brother, but generally content as long as he is played with, gets plenty of walks, and adequate attention has been paid to his standards.

We've had a rough couple of years, and made some progress but COVID19 has made it difficult bringing us to unemployment for most of the year. I recently started working again about a month ago so things are getting better but not quick enough for surgery.

Stevie is otherwise an exceptionally healthy pup. We didn't get much valuable background information on Stevie before he joined our family. After being hit by a truck his femur and hip bone have been fractured and require surgery for repair for a full recovery.

Stevie is special first and foremost by his breed, not many of his kind and at his size, however you better you keep an eye on him or he'll steal any napkin/tissue/paper you can find and rip it to shreds! Even when you think you might just strangle him with his own tail he sits in his own perfect little position and looks back to give you the puppy stare that has to be the most adorable little face.
