Titus is a 8-year-old Pitbull Mix in Irving, TX, who needs $1,400 for CT Scan for Diagnosis of Abdominal Mass.

8 years ago, our family went to the shelter to adopt a dog and Titus chose us that day! He was 1 year old at the time and full of pure love and energy - we knew immediately we'd found our guy. He's loved and protected us faithfully since that day.

Titus is the best fur brother to his 3 human siblings and his two cat siblings and he is his Momma's constant shadow. There's no place Titus would rather be than right beside his people. He loves going on "adventures" at the park, taking nature walks with his Mom and sister, playing fetch with his favorite blue ball, playing tug o war with his rope bones and peanut butter!!

Titus is the best comforter. He loves us on our best and worst days and is the embodiment of pure, unconditional love! He's stubborn, silly, and very sweet. He can speak, shake, spin, roll over, play dead. He loves treats and his only nemesis on the planet is a vacuum cleaner or weed eater.

We received the news about a week and a half ago that Titus has a mass in his abdomen. Two vets have confirmed this after the initial round of blood panels and sonograms. To know for sure where the mass is exactly and if it's operable, he needs a CT Scan that is extremely expensive. Collin County Imaging is the most reasonable place we've found, and their CT Scan starts at $1400.

Titus's illness has completely blindsided us. I took him to an ER vet on a Saturday thinking he had a UTI or bladder infection, not expecting to hear that he has a life threatening mass growing inside him. We're desperately hoping to at least get help with a diagnosis.
