Jasper is a Shetland Shepherd who found me three years ago during the firework celebrations on Fourth of July. I took him in before returning him to his original owner. A few nights later, he returned and I reasoned with his owners that I should take care of him with my two other dogs (Poe, a cockerpoodle, and Lilo, a maltese). He's been happy at home with me for three years now! Dr. Cho at the Afforadable Animal Hospital NOHO has provided medication, taken blood work, and conducted X-Rays for what he concludes is: 1. Multifocal thoracic and lumbar spondylosis 2. Degenerative lumbosacral disease 3. Bilateral coxofemoral osteoarthritis But, he needs to conduct more tests--an MRI or CT myelography--to determine the presence of a compressive myelopthy/radiculoneuropathy. Japser is a silly, timid, and goofy friend who loves playing with any size stick, ball, or chew toy. He always looks out for who's entering the front gate with a "wooh ooh!" and will become easily shaken by loud noises, like fireworks. He gets frightened by balloons or wide, floating, or hanging objects. He's very cuddly and loyal and is always ready to play or go for a walk! I am a full-time artist, muralist, and painting teacher. My annual income is below $15,000 a year and I am paying off past medical bills and rent. I currently live at home with my parents. Jasper needs all the help he can get right now.
