I found this little guy on Petfinder and as it turns out, was due to be PTS tomorrow (5/2/07). Linda drove to the shelter to check him out and my friend Wendy is going to pick him up for me tomorrow (she's only 18 miles away versus my 40+ and heavy Houston traffic). She will drop him at my vet's office for a once-over and hopefully he'll be home with us soon.

If you read my previous thread about the female in Corsicana, you'll remember I had to have her put to sleep due to major cancer in her mouth. This after less than 48 hours with me. And, in many threads, I've mentioned my first love, Chester, whom I rescued several years ago and lost in 2005.

Oh, I so adore the pitiful little things and watching them come back from their horrible circumstances. His little eyes are matted shut, but hopefully it's treatable.

I'M SOOO EXCITED! Will post pics asap!

Oh I do wish you all the luck with this one! You deserve it. I pray that God blesses you and this sweet baby.

bless your heart for taking in rescues and turning them around. can't wait to see him.

He's in the Missouri City, TX animal shelter; at least, he was. I'm so happy about the mostly clean bill of health he received today. I pick him up at 7:30 in the morning and will let you guys know more about him.

I thought the same thing about his eyes. The vet did bathe him and said they cleaned up his eyes. He'll be sporting a new "do" after I get him to the groomer this weekend. This little guy sure has a surprise in store for him living here. Since my son left, it's just me and the furbabies. Now I'll have three to cuddle up with at night! Woo-Hoo!

Congrats

Those before pictures are so cute, you've got a winner!

Hey everyone!

Just checking in to let you know that Harry (after my sweet grandfather) is doing just fine. He's a little skiddish, which is to be expected. If I go up to him, he backs off, but eventually comes to me. He tries to jump into the recliner, but just doesn't have the oomph to do it and it takes a few tries for him to let me pick him up.

He did fine in the bed last night and I woke up this morning to three little angels all curled up around me (who needs a man?!?!).

His eyes are huge after getting them cleaned up. He spent most of the evening curled up next to me on the recliner just enjoying the pet session.

Thanks to everyone for their well wishes. I'm supposed to be getting a digital camera soon (from a friend) and will post pics as soon as I can.

I am always wondering how come such a cute little thing as a Yorkie can get to a rescue. Thanks God for people like you.

I wish you the best time with your adorable furbaby.

aw sounds like he had a good first night with you.

[ChestersMom]

Boy, what a difference a few days make. This little guy has the most beautiful eyes you've ever seen. Never would've guessed from the "before" photos. Just four days of medication has made such a difference.

He's learned to navigate the doggie door and even met me at the gate this evening when I got home. Not to mention, he RAN to meet me! He's made it very clear to Chloe and Darla that his place is next to me in the recliner. Darla doesn't seem to mind (only 8 mos old), but Chloe is a little more jealous. She's getting used to him though and is more friendly every day.

I'm sorry it's taking me so long to get "after" photos, but I want to take him to the groomer first and this weekend just wasn't long enough for me to get everything done.

Thanks for all your prayers.

Jacki, Harry and the Girls

Can't wait to see his new "do".

Harry must think that he has died and gone to heaven with all the loving attention he is getting from you and the girls. Thank god you got him out of the shelter. Congratulations on your newest furbaby.
