His were not actually cracking off but they were black and hairless much like Forest.

This is just sooooooo SAD!

Adoptable Pups

Thank you - those are much better pictures. I'm going to see if Linda can repost the pictures here too.

Here they are! I was thinking the same thing about poor nutrition and possibly leather ear. When I asked the vet about Truman he suggested antifungal creme and it not only worked but they healed and before he passed away his ears had fully healed and GREW hair back. My vet suggested human antifungal like you would use for athletes foot. At first they hair that grew in didn't really stick and was easily pulled out but over time it became stronger.

Here are the pictures of his ears that I just swiped

Omgosh, a chill went down my spine when I saw those poor little ears I am so glad he's finally getting the attention and care that he needs.z

[yorkiemalt]

that just breaks my heart. what a precious little baby he is! so glad he's with you Jen. I'll pray that they find out the problem(s) and he can live the remainder of his life knowing what it's like to be loved the way they all should be.

I had tears in my eyes when I looked at that pic in your original post. Such a sad little baby who just wants to be cared for. Thank God he found his angel in you

[Darlene68]

How terribly sad, bless his little heart this makes me want to cry. Thankfully he will finally get the love and care he deserves.

I would bet a lot of money that his neuro symptoms are a result of abuse as a puppy. It's should read "my owner never told anyone what happened to me". These people should be brought up on animal abuse charges for surrendering an animal in such condition...absolute trash.

I've never seen ears like that in my whole life. I don't know how anyone could have let him go that long without help. I feel so sorry for him.

Thank you Kim. He is a precious little baby, and needs lots of prayers. I know after he is all fixed up, someone is going to get the most precious yorkie boy ever

Something cute and funny.......LOL...Louis, my little food hound poodle, sits and stares at Forrest's filled food bowl with such longing eyes. I hate to tell Forrest....Louis loves you for your food

I want to and most likely will report them for animal abuse, bc this is abuse, whether or not they actually did anything to him or as seems to be the case, neglected him so badly. But for now, I'm still trying to get medical records from them, so I have to play nice for now

[megooego]

Wow, Jen.. What a poor little baby. I don't understand how anyone could treat an innocent dog this way. I just can't get over those ears! Bless your heart for taking him in.. At least now he will get the medical attention and love that he needs!

(Wow, now I know what you were talking about. 10 dogs!? Lol, you must be a busy woman!)
Keep us updated on his progress!

Meagan, for the life of me, I don't understand either....some people have no heart, is all I can think

LOL.....hey, things are improving - I'm down to 8 now I've got to have a bathing marathon tomorrow though

I will keep you all updated on Forrest's progress....I'm expecting great thing of him

[YorkieShadow]

That poor baby and those poor little ears of his. I am so thankful hes in your hands now. Thank goodness they posted him on craiglist and someone special saw his cry for help. how could any one let him go so long with out help. Praying for him to get better. bless his heart.

[QuickSilver]

Welcome, Forrest! I hope that you are feeling much better soon, and find a great new home.

[StacyDufner]

This is so sad. I wish I was back in OK I would take this little guy.
