Let me begin this by explaining that Coco us a rescue yorkie. When he came to my home he as completely emaciated, had a horrid skin/coat condition, and did not even know how to eat from a food bowl or water bowl. Coco joined my family after one day my mom and sister went to the supermarket and found him with his owner who had him in a purse and discussed her desire to send him to a kill shelter. Since the supermarket knew of my other son was stolen, they assumed that he was mine.
Coco was taken to the vet! Poor guy used to be placed in the prior owners bathroom where he learned how to drink water from drinking from the shower stall after someone finished showering. (Very sad) Coco had no idea what it meant to eat from a food bowl-he was fed alpo dog food from a can.
Coco has now gained weight-he weighed 2 lbs! He coat has gained vibrancy as the patches and ald spots ahve gone way and is now diagnosed with epilepsy (which he is on medication for currently) and is also developing a cataract on his left eye
!
I ahve managed to work with him on going #2 outseid, however he still is not goign outside for peeing. Any ideas? I love this furbaby!
FYI-next week Coco will get neutered, so I think this may help! But any advise would be greatly appreciated!
