Yoshi is a 6-year-old Lab/Shepherd Mix in Stevens point , WI, who needs $1,200 for Mass Removal and Testing for Cancer.

Yoshi came to us as a rescue as puppy at about 11 weeks old. We got him from a Humane Society. He was first my dad's dog until my dad has passed away in 2019. Then Yoshi got attached to me and I of him. He is not my comfort pet when I need him to be he is always there.

Yoshi loves everyone in the household and will go to anyone in the household when called. He is a gentle giant. He looks out for his older brothers. If we tell him to go get your brother he will go and bring them in if they are outside. He "protects" his house from the mail carrier.

Yoshi loves to protect our two girl guinea pigs. He will give them kisses and that just melts my heart. He will protect them from the two cats we have even if the cats are just walking by he will scare them away. Sometimes he has accidents where he will hit his head either on the kitchen table or on a door. All you hear is a clunk. But he is a tough dog. He is a very loving dog.

Yoshi has no prior health conditions. I am looking for help with paying for his tumor removal and to test that tumor to see if it is cancerous or not. Plus we have to do other bloodwork done before the surgery.

I'm looking for help because I am currently a college student and this was a sudden expense I was not ready for. I always had pets but none of them ever got a tumor. This is my first time around with this. Any help would be appreciated.
