Need a Helping Hand

For those of you who know Moose, I really don't need to say anything. For those who are coming across this site from a friend of a friend, Moose is a sweet lovable puppy who'll never hesitate to bathe you with slobbery kisses.

Last weekend during a rambunctious romp through the house he came off the carpet on to the wood floors, slipped, and yelped a loud whine. He began limping around but, eventually walked it off and it went away, soon to return later on in the evening. As the week went by, his limp was more distinguished and by Thursday I became concerned what I thought to be a hip injury and took him to the vet. They placed him on antibiotics and anti-inflammatory meds to see if it'd help but on Saturday his limp turned in to a hop, compeletely avoiding the use of his back right leg. Brought him back in for X-rays this morning and he has a Luxating Patella. Basically his knee cap pops in and out and as time goes by, it becomes more out than in as time goes by without surgery.

I'm asking the power of the internet to help raise $2000 to save Moose's Caboose. For those who know me, I rarely ask people for money but in this situation, I simply do not know what else to do out of love for my puppy. Please help me help Moose.

I have included a link below that will provide a way to donate via paypal. Any amount is appreciated.

Thank You from the bottom of my heart.
