Help Buster's Operation!

Buster, whose nickname is Boo Boo, needs an operation to save his life! He has a mass near his liver that needs to be removed and we are looking for financial help to achieve the $4,500 to $6,500 for surgery. We need to schedule the surgery soon and we are starting this campaign to raise the funds within 30 days or less!

Buster is Mr. Happy-Go-Lucky miniature Schnauzer with a haircut to reveal his happy face. He is 11, has lots of energy and is loved by all! He can live another 6-8 +years with the operation and is a needed companion with his younger half-sister, Penny.

The outlook for a full recovery is good but as with all surgeries there is a risk. His Doctor, Dr. Becky Murray, DVM, DACVS (BARC), and hi regular doctor, Dr. Mark Zacharia, DVM (Edmonds-Westgate Veterinary Hospital, both have sated that he is ding well at home, eating and drinking normally, ready to play (either chase a ball or chase his "talking" birdy.

With a 15+ year life expectancy coupled with his boundless energy, we expect Buster to entertain the neighborhood and sister for may years to come! The Doctors' conclusion was, "Therefore, surgery provides the best possible treatment option for these patient's. The reported prognosis is good for dogs with massive HCC with a median survival time of >1,460 days for most completely excised HCC that survive the perioperative period."

Help us save Buster, we are only looking for matching funds. My W3 Tours Wine-tasting business was a victim of Covid-19 so I am out of work.

I am working on a book titled "My Conversations with Buster and Penny", to imagine what they would say about all of this themselves, I am a published author in How-to and DIY books and pamphlets so I should be able to write an entertaining story about Buster and Penny; I expect the first drafts to be ready late summer.

Thank you for your consideration,
