New Yorkie I've been lurking since August learning what I can about yorkies in the hopes of adding one to our family. We were offered a 3 year old little girl by a family who could no longer care for her. She came to live with us on Monday. I took her to the vet yesterday and she weighed 3 pounds. He told me she was emaciated and malnourished. I knew that because I could feel every bone in her body. He wormed her and she expelled a tape worm today. Yea! I've got to get her up to 4 1/2 pounds so that she can be spayed. What a wonderful little dog - so responsive and loving. She is on vitamins for 3 weeks and a good grade of dog food - eating like a pig! She has a grade 2 heart murmer. I hope nothing comes of that but if it does we are here for her. Thanks for the wonderful threads and the knowledge here. It has helped a lot. |
welcome to yt.. so glad you stopped lurking and joined us lol.. thanks for taking this baby in.. you sound like a wonderful person. cant wait to see pictures of your baby. |
Welcome to YT! I am so glad that your sweet girl found you, it sounds like she is in wonderful hands. I can't wait for pictures. |
Hi And Welcome!:):):):) Congrats on your adoption.:D I too adopted an adult (21/2 yo) and he was underweight too, 3lb 11oz. (should be 4lb according to doc) Now he's wormed, neutered and on EVO, and seems to be gaining a little:rolleyes:. The vet also told me he had a murmur, but that was all. Except mine is a little boy. Did the vet say if its a problem or not? I know humans can have them and they mean nothing.?!? |
