The only vet care she ever received was her spay and it was poor ( my vet had made a comment about it because I rescued her days after it was preformed)

So all of this....and I have her for 3 months and she dies.... if I had not had the heartworm treatment done I know that she would still be alive.
Oh this is so sad, I hope you were able to spoil her rotten the last 3 months of her life. I'm confused though, why do you think she would have survived if she hadn't been treated for heartworms? I thought they die for sure if not treated; it's just that treatment doesn't always work. I can't believe people think that yorkies are outdoor dogs, they don't have fur, they have hair and hair doesn't protect against heat and cold like fur does.
