Otis is a 2 1/2-year-old Blackmouth Cur. This cute little guy has been showing signs of serious back and back leg pain. He was taken to Dr Schram and Otis has been diagnosed with Legg-Calve-Perthes which affects the back legs causing him discomfort, pain, stiffness and sometimes he's too weak to pick himself up. He was also diagnosed with Hemivertebrae. Hemivertebrae happens when the vertebrae of the canine spine are congenitally deformed so as to fuse or otherwise develop abnormally.

Otis will need surgery to help relieve his discomfort in his legs. He will need to have an FHO. FHO is a surgical procedure that removes the head and neck of a dog's femur to help restore pain free mobility to a damaged hip.

We need your help to cover the cost of his surgery. Otis deserves a chance to live a pain free life. He has a long recovery, but his foster family is committed to help him through his recovery.

Please help Otis by donating to his FHO surgery. He will be having his operation by Dr Schram with Affordable Vet Clinic, Winchester Ohio.

Thank You So Much.
