My friend, who has a ver tiny fully grown yorkie. She has been letting family members take care of her because she works. She has not even seen her yorkie in weeks.
I met up with her , because she is a caregiver to an elderly couple in my complex. I was able to see her little itty baby.
It was shocking
This yorkie is pretty energetic , and everything, however, IS STARVING to death. It was grossly thin, I could feel all her bones up her spind and fell all of her ribs , their is just nothing left to her. Nancy, my friend did say something is wrong with her.... I first thought of worms, but she has been wormed, and has had 2 series of vaccines. Nancy my friend was allowing two teeager girls be responsible for her baby, and told me they they just leave her crated all the time, and she just get filthy with urin and poo.
When we got to her families house we ended up waiting because one of the girls were bathing her. Probably because she was very smelly. and the girls did not want Nancy to see her that way.
The poor little one , and I mean extrmemly small yorkie had her hair grown out, but they kept tying her hair into a pony tail. The pony tail was out, and the yorkie was matted there on top of her head. Nancy gave her a dentatix and she had eaten it like crazy.
I gave Nancy a super high organic canned food , 95% protien from wellness , I only had one can, then I gave her what I had left the rest of my bag of Wellness super 5 mix. Nancy told me to give her some, and she ate like crazy, They were not giving her enogh to eat at all. I am feeling so sad about this yorkie. No dog ought to ever be in this kind of shape ever.
Her wee one has a lot of energy too, despite being soo dang hungry.
I let her know that I could watch her when she works , and stuff.
Nancy says she hasa little room she can put her in at her house, but we all know yorkie's want to be with people.
Aparently, her family members did not like to clean up after this little one, and just kept her crated all the time. So she is not trained to potty or anything, even on puppy pads. Being so tiney, I am sure she is not making a huge mess .
I got to hold her and she was sooo wiggly , it scared me , Nancy told me the yorkie loves to climb up to her neck.
Nancy told me she is keeping her for a couple weeks , to show them that she was starving. I advised her not to take the yorkie backover there.
i have never seen such a starving, anorexic , dog before. Especially such a tiny yorkie, that could of not weighed even a pound. Their is just nothing to her.
I told her if she were sick she would not be eating , and she was eating , starvingly. I hope it is not too late to save her. This has been very upsetting to me.
She is the most cutest little it bitty yorkie too. my gosh this yorkie is neglected , and her owner did tell me that. I just do not know if she will survive . Such a shame . In their back yard they had a really pretty Boxer, that dog looked great, very healthy and their was a huge bag of dog food for the boxer....
