The mother sounds like a handful and even violent. I feel so sorry for this little yorkie . I hope he is not traumatised too much. He is going to need lots of TLC .

I believe the original owner did the right thing by rehoming her little guy. Alzhimers is an awful disease. Those suffering from alzhimers have know idea what they're doing. They say and do things totlly out of their character. They even forget their loved ones.

I think this lady showed great love for her Mother and her pup...Alzheimer's disease is a terrible disease of the brain, that deterioriates the brain, until the body no longer "knows" how to function, and it stops living...It is quite possible that this lady's mother was a great dog lover, before being struck w/this disease...As far as making a choice, you can rehome a cute little Yorkie, but what can you do w/an old woman w/a debilitating disease, who is out of their mind, most of the time, and going to die?...No one, on the planet, is going to take care of her (or rehome her) and she is so fortunate to have her daughter, to care of her...Her daughter must be, extremly, overwhelmed w/such a huge task....I pray for peace for this woman, and a perfect new forever home for her dog...

I'm glad you are able to rescue this poor little dog. Alzhimers is a terrible disease and you never know what people in that condition are capable of doing. I'm also happy that the owner had the sense to get this dog out of that envioment before it was too late.

Sweet Apple · 09-09-2010, 08:11 AM

Btw, laci32...I'm so glad you are taking the pup...It's wonderful that people, like you, are willing to open their hearts and homes to these little guys that need to find a different place to live, because of unfortunate circumstances...

Elmo has arrived safe and sound he is a very frightened little boy but with love and patience. I believe he will come out of his shell and know he is safe and loved. It's so cute Andy keeps bringing him toys to share with him. He took one a little teddy bear. I will take pictures soon. Thanks for all your support

chestermama · 09-10-2010, 04:01 PM

good for you, he needs to be in a much better place than scared and under the bed, poor baby

laci32 · 09-10-2010, 05:08 PM

Well this has been an eventful couple days to say the least. I couldn't find this thread earlier so now I am dragging info over here now that I found it. First I want to thank you all for being you and so supportive you all Rock !

Hi I tried to find my other thread "Off To The Rescue" but just couldn't see it. My story has some weird twists today. First the hubby of the lady with the yorkie wanted the dog back and the mother put in a nursing home. It was to much of a strain not only on the yorkie but on them and their marriage. I don't know how they found one over night but they did. I have the feeling it had been in the works for sometime.

Anyway The woman called and told me what was going on, could she have Elmo back so the three of them could work on being happy again. I agreed under one condition that I bring him and come in for a coffee.

When I got back Andy whom I had the feeling wasn't feeling well this morning anyway, is sick to his stomach , Now laying in his bed almost lethargic. I'm not liking this one bit and going to take him to the vets.

I will keep you all posted PS: Elmo's home was fine and Grandma free, You could tell he loved his family and they loved him. It all worked out for the best

keokis mom · 09-10-2010, 05:38 PM

Wow- you are an angel. I am so happy you helped little Elmo and looked out for his best interest. The world is a better place because of people like you. This whole situation had to be draining on you and on Andy- I'm sure he is just emotionally drained. Please keep us posted- you are in my thoughts- thank you so much for helping this little guy. I'm glad it was a happy ending after all.
