I got on the computer this morning and found this site to learn more about Dixie's condition. It is making me very sad to read because I don't think there is any hope of recovery for her. She is a wonderful little dog who is about 6 1/2 yrs old. She lays in the crook of my husband's arm on her back and sleeps while my husband does his bookwork. This is our second Yorkie, our first one Dexter had problems also. He didn't have a muscle to close off his bladder and leaked all the time. The vet wanted to put him to sleep because he was too little to stay outside in the weather and would make a big mess in the house. I cried and then made some diapers out of mini pads and a pad holder to go around him. The Vet said he would never leave it on. Well, he left it on for 10 yrs. I bought more mini pads for hiim in those ten years then I did for my three daughters, but it was worth it. Now I need to think of something to help Dixie with her problem. Where there is a will there is a way. |
I'm so sorry to hear about Dixie. I hope you can find some way to help her.
Please post updates.
