Sadness and desperate help needed for my 5 mo Staffy Bull

Sadness has overcome me here. My baby boy Jenks is in desperate need of surgery on both of his front legs to correct a condition that will cause him alot of pain and shorten his life if he doesn't have the surgery. Jenks is a 5 1/2 month old Staffordshire Bull Terrier. I hand raised him, he was the runt and almost didnt make it after being born. He has been so strong!! His growth plates on his ulna's in both of his front legs have prematurely closed, meaning that bone will no longer grow, but the radius, the other bone, will continue to grow, causing his legs to contiune to bow, causing elbow dysplasia and DJD. The radiologist gave him a grim poor prognosis without surgery. Surgery is going to cost about $6000 after everything is said and done for both legs!!! I have created a Facebook Group that has donated items that people can bid on thru February 29th, 2012. Just click the link if you are a facebook memeber and join in!!!

I want to send a HUGE THANK YOU out to all of you who supported Jenksie!!!! He had his surgeries yesterday at a different vet, one who was more compassionate and one who charged me about HALF of what the original specialty clinic wanted. The donation bid items that are still open are closing today at 8pm CST. Any money that is over what Jenksies costs are will be donated to a rescue group! Thank you all again!!
