Carson is a working companion dog for a man with traumatic brain injury. Carson has recently experienced some health problems that require expensive veterinary treatment that his owner simply cannot afford. Allowing Carson to die for lack of money for treatment would not only be wrong for this dog, it would take away a valuable part of his owner's support system for functioning in his home and in the community. Persons with disabilities are over-represented by those living below the poverty line. The costs of beneficial services and supports can be prohibative to the very people who need them the most.
Love for Carson is an investment in his owner, who is currently undergoing vocational retraining in a career in which he can succeed in spite of his disabilities and who is already a positive, contributing member of society to the utmost of his abilities. KPS4Parents is advocating for the preservation of this important part of the life of a productive person challenged by disability for our love of Carson, who we are honored to know, and on behalf of his owner, for the sake of preserving a natural support that is beneficial to his ongoing growth and recovery from his disabling conditions.
The estimated high-end, worst case scenario of Carson's potential treatment costs is $5500. It could end up being less or more; it's just an estimate. We have already raised $1430 in cash, charity contributions, and credit to pay towards Carson's care, but his costs are anticipated to be higher. We would appreciate however much you are able to donate, even if it's just $10, to contribute towards Carson's care. Your All donations are tax-deductible; KPS4Parents is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, tax ID # 65-1195513.
