Fred's Surgery

Hello,  my name is Deputy Fred and I am a mental illness service dog for cyclothymic disorder.  My girl Ellen relies on me to detect and help with anxiety and depression, and general companionship.  I've saved her countless times, and now she wants to do the same for me.
I have a growth on my tummy that doesn't look good-we're not sure how it might affect me, but the vet wants to remove it to learn more.  The surgery will cost $450, possibly $650.  My girl is a junior in college and will struggle to afford it, though her parents will help if necessary.  We're hoping some dog lovers out there can send some support; even if it's not monetary, just some shout outs to my girl!
With any donation, I'll be sending a photo of my girl and I and learning to autograph them :)  Thank you, and be awesome :)
