couldnt find my post-lol
 

Well she does have coccidia, conjuctivitis & he said his guess would be she probably had mange. Although he didnt know anything about blue skins. I dont think she is a blue. She weighed 1.9 lbs he confirmed she is 4-5 months old. Got her meds. We go back in 7-10 days to see if the coccidia is gone. I know i cant let her sleep w/us-incase it is mange. He didnt do a scrape, just said revolution would take care of any mites. She eats really good. I keep her seperate from my other pets. I cant wait til shes better so she can sleep w/ us. I think she would get better faster. She loves to be held-all the time & wants to meet her brother. I have a 2 yr old neutered pom. He loves the clothes Rena makes for him. She is shipping this little girls out friday-cant wait. She needs the extra warmth. She is going to be a itty bitty. I understand if the dog was a rescue & had probs-she's better off in a home, more attention, care , love-she'll heal faster- but this place was unsanitary. She is definately hoarding these dogs. I gave $450 for her in this shape-she wouldnt take any less. I am suppose to get her spayed in 60 days so she will send her aka papers. She said I dont get them if not, even if the vet says no. shes only 1.9 & not skinny, so in 60 days she may be, what...2.5 hopefully, that is scary. I dont want anything to happen to her :( . So if I cant find a confident vet w/ experience w/spaying this small she can keep the papers. I would like to spay her when she is healthy & at a good weight. Thanks for your prayers & welcomes.

I believe her weight is a reflection of her poor health. With good care she will gain weight drastically after she's rid of those health problems. Brandy had worms once and went from 1.8 to 3.2 in 2 weeks. Normally in a real rescue a dog with the conditions you described would be in foster care with an experienced person until she is healed and evaluated for adoption. I think you will be able to take care of her, she'll need a lot of TLC, understanding, and 1 on 1 time. I there is a fine line between rescue and sell. I believe she sold this dog to you more than anything else.
I really hope you're able to get those papers so you can do some research on her background and how she ended up into this lady's hands. Since you know nothing of this dog's background she could have been abused or from a puppymill. I really hope that you are able to help her along, she might end up with many long term problems since her background is unknown from genetic defects to potty training issues from being crated. I would also recommend calling all of the vets and find a vet more experienced with blue skins.
You are the real rescue and hero here! You rescued this dog from the rescuer. I hope you call animal control on this woman, she is doing nothing for these animals but making them sicker by diseases and prolonging medical care she knows that they need. To deny medical care IS animal abuse! Does the dog even have all of her shots? You are the one doing all of the rescuing, she was probably given that dog for free by an owner who surrendered her due to the costly vet bills because she's unhealthy. Sorry for the rant everyone, I just wonder how long this dog had to suffer before Rachel opened her arms to her!

Sooo many Big ..
 

Hearts Here on YT.. I am glad to see that you are another one to add to this wonderful Community .. Its Sad that a the puppy needs so much help But when theres people like you in the world it make These Special little dogs life worth while.

I am sending prayers You & Your New babies way :)

Shame on the rescue that even let this baby go with out being healthy :thumbdown :mad: this baby really needs you I am glad that you are there for her :aimeeyork !!

:thumbdown I am sorry but i would report this women ! :mad: :thumbdown

This does not sound like a LEGITIMATE RESCUE!!! That person must be reported to local authorities and stopped from fraudulently representing herself as a rescuer..This dog was sold and not rescued..Getting the papers is the least of your worries concerning this dog and I am glad that you have already made the decision that they are not a matter of real importance.. The health of the dog is the biggest issue.
I know about the blue borns and although I am not an expert, you can PM me if you think I can be of any help to you.
BTW, how many breeds did you see when you went to select and buy your baby? The condition of this puppy sounds as if she might have been a mill puppy originally...
These are just my opinions..

I wish you luck with your little girl. It sounds like she is finally in wonderful hands and will have a very happy life now. Welcome to YT. I would contact the authorities on the "Rescue" woman.

Good luck with your new little girl , Hope she will soon be on the road to recovery.

Poor little baby! Thank goodness for people like you.

I don't know if this will help with the mange problem, but there is an older gentleman at my job who was given a yorkie puppy that had mange and the ownder did not want him. He told me he and his wife used to rub sulfur on the dogs coat to clear him up. I'll definitely give him a call tomorrow to ask and make sure.

Good luck.

Welcome to Yorkie Talk. Your fur baby is in need of some much love and health care now and she is so lucky to have you to give that to her.

You are a very special person with a huge heart. :aimeeyork

My Yorkie
 

She is doing great. Eating alot, drinking, playing-so sweet.

In the hour & a half I was at this ladies house 2 or 3 others came to look & were undecided so she brought out yorkies, jack russle, snauzer, poodle, chihuahua, maltese, bishon, pekinese, s**tzu.....there were 2 great danes, she mentioned having mastiffs available.She told the people to tell her what they wanted & she'd bring it out-crazy, huh?


The diseases are definately contagious to other animals. coccidiosis can be deadly in small dogs & pups-they get dehydrated.

She actually didnt have any worms, except for the coccidia/parasite. And she doesnt seem thin/under weight. I don't think she is a blue skin, I think the lady was just making a excuse for the manginess. I believe she gave her a shot, but she marked a record as her having a shot at 6 & 8 weeks then another on 11/15. She said she had her for a month , so she wouldnt have had her at 6 & 8 wks. I will be calling to see if there is a more knowledgable vet. I know there is one in chillicothe that works with petlands dogs-which sells yorkies, so maybe he will know-but I'll call around, I need to confirm whether she is blue skin or not forsure.

I play & hold her alot. And when she is over the coccidia (and the mange) she will be sleeping with us. I have bought her cute tiny toys her size & some large ones that she likes to beat up on. Pink beds, carriers, clothes & hair bows-she will be spoiled so bad. I will get picks up soon. Hugs to all my new friends. Your support is important & you've been very helpful.

Good for you...glad to hear she is going to be well taken care of.....

That sure sounds like a puppy mill - many times a rescue person specializes in one rescue breed - I think this sounds fishy

Anna Belle
 

I decided to name her anna belle. She still has the coccidiosis, which is upsetting cause I cant have her around my other dogs or let her sleep with us with that going on. Hopefully it will be gone this week, vet visit 3 in 3 weeks. :rolleyes: She will get on us and sleep, but doesnt seem to be bonding with us well, she is more interested in the dogs-but they arent likeing her right now, she is hyper. Her hair is growing longer. She eats royal canin. Questions: any ideas for bonding, getting her to pay attention & getting her body & hair less dry. is royal canin one of the best foods for her.... I feel she will pay more attention, when we have bonded-but I'm not sure what I can do to get her to trust me. I know patience, time & understanding. :animal36 Any suggestions on this, the food or the dry hair/skin. :aimeeyork Rachel

Update on Anna Belle
 

She is up to 2.9 in the about 7wks I've had her. Her hair is growing in & I think we finally got rid of the parasites, so she has the run of the house, but hope it gets warmer soon we need more potty breaks but its to stinkin cold. It breaks my heart to think what this little thing has been thru in her short life, probably laying in a cage trying to live & sometimes wishing she could just die. Its horrible to think about. I'm pretty sure she did come from a amish puppymill, but was bought by this so called rescuer & even though I did not know what I was getting into I am glad I decided to make the long trip & save this little girl from all this, cause she is on cloud nine with her new family.Thanks for everything.
