Update: 12/1/11: My foster mom took me to see an eye specialist for the cataract in my right eye- a very generous donor made that possible (Thank you Mary Ng!) The Dogter told the Rescue Squad that the tests were inconclusive as to whether I have sight in that eye so they would need to do additional tests before surgery, if I am a candidate. I can see perfectly fine with my other eye so the Dogter thinks we should wait. In the meatime, I am slowly blossoming into a very sweet pup. I am still shy but learning to trust a little more everyday.
Update 10/30/11: I have been to the Dogtor - turns out I don't have a prolapsed rectum - it was just inflamed from the tapeworm which is all gone now! I do have to see a specialist about my eye (juvenile cataract) and may even have a generous benefactor who will make that happen soon. I have trust issues with humans and although every day I am showing signs of being less fearful, I know I still have a long way to go. I need a home that is on the quiet side with no children as they scare me. So do loud noises and sudden movements. They scare me so much that I sometimes have accidents because of it. When I am not scared though, I am a good girl and do my business on a wee wee pad. I get really excited when it's time to eat- I also like to wag my tail when I am being offered a treat. Sometimes I even go up to my foster Mom's hand and take it. Other times I still get nervous and try to approach but cower away. Sometimes I like to roll over for belly rubs but only when I trust my foster Mom- and she can't move fast when she pets me otherwise I freak out. You see, I was not handled much in the puppy mill I came from and so everything is brand new to me. I need a new home that can grow with me and show me the ropes of being a dog. With a little trust, much love and lots of patience, I will blossom into a sweet loveable girl. Are you the right furever family for me? Hi... my name is Dixie and I am a bit on the shy side. I came to the nice folks at Yorkie911 from a puppy mill in the midwest. They vetted me, cleaned me up real nice and groomed me. They found out I have tapeworm which I have been treated for but it appears I may have a prolapsed rectum as well. I also have what appears to be a cataracts in my left eye. We won't know for sure what is going on with me until I visit the dogtor. I also need to be spayed and will get a physical before I can start looking for my furever family. That doesn't mean you have to wait though! If you think I may be the perfect match for your family then put in an adoption application at: www.yorkie911rescue.com. My adoption fee is $400. |
