What shows can I write to that would do a story on my dog who has cancer?
My dog is named Muggs he is an 8 year old beagle. He was diagnosed with cancer about 6 months ago maybe a little bit longer and since then has had numerous surgeries. The cancer started in his leg, and was removed only to return weeks later and finally his leg had to be amputated. The day after getting out of his leg amputation surgery he was already walking and running around acting as though nothing had happened and he had always had three legs. He just had a recent surgery that he returned from a few days ago where 3 more cancerous lumps were removed. The incision was a lot larger than we had anticipated it stretches from the back of his neck all down behind his ear and down to where his leg used to be. He now has a drainage system to avoid clotting and to minimize the possibility of infection. His large wound is held together by staples and some stitching that he could easily rip out, so he is not allowed to be outside unless on a leash, walk, jump, run or play, or climb any stairs. Even after this extensive surgery he is still his same self trying to run around and play, and its been difficult to keep him in one place. All the people at the vet hospital absolutely adore him and have a picture of only him hanging on the wall because he has been such a trooper. Everyone loves him and he has a great character. I wanna show people how great he is and maybe help pay the medical bills since they are so expensive and we can barely afford it. I want to write to a tv show about him to show his braveness through all of this and give hope to other people about their own dogs with cancer and that it is possible to overcome it even when it seems at its worst. If anyone has any information they could give me it would be much appreciated I also have pictures of Muggs right now with his staples and everything, and some of right after his leg was amputated and how happy he is. Thank you to anyone who responds.
