But, I am still a little concerned. After the "obvious" placement, there still is a lingering thought that they may want her back. I suppose IF I knew who they were, I might feel a little easer about it...maybe.

joyce evans,
Blond Deer !, ohhh gees, I think I'd better find a Wawa Forum and find something out about my new little acquisition ! What would one that's black like Navi be called ? However there's probably numerous Users on this Forum which have those constantly shivering little tikes

Remember that Blanket that was in the Crate...
Navi plows under it when she goes to bed ! I've had to feel of it several times, to find out where she was. I leave the Doggy Door open for my guys to potty when they want to, so locating them all is sometimes a chore. I have a General Assembly call for my guys, but it's not something I'd like to do at midnight

dollydoodle,
Ummm, someone checking up on me or my property, doesn't make me feel very comfortable. At this point, I'm not sure I'd appreciate or cooperate with any "request to have her returned". I went ahead and had her Microchipped at the Vet's Office. So, I guess if push came to shove, I may have the upper hand.

On a Health Note...
After Navi got the Bordetella "sniff", she didn't deal with it too well. Coughed for several hours after. Hope that stuff is Dead Virus !
I understand that her Breed is just as susceptible to have the Tracheal Collapse as are the Yorkshire.

Not sure about your little pooch but I've heard of apple heads and deer. My Wawa has very long legs and her head is shaped like a deer head.
I love what youv'e named her but wonder what her name was.

Awwwww....I love this, absolutely love this!! Congrats on the new Chi!!!

[yorkiemini]

Blessings to you for opening you home and heart to this little one in need"

[Maximo]

Congratulations on the new adorable addition to your pack. Glad to hear Navi is doing well. Amazing story! Someone definitely thought you would take good care of this little one.

My Avatar is a picture of a Golfer, hitting a Ball off of the Tee.
There has been a "Flame" photoshoped into the Picture, implying that the Ball was hit so hard it exploded. (I play Golf)

Thank all of you for your very kind words.
I am a little concerned though, Navi is (occasionally) coughing like she did after the Bordetella. If this goes on, it's back to the Vet for sure.

Nope....live virus....which is why alot of dogs get sick from it and develop KC after having the drops....I hate it.

[Lil Sis]

What a sweet story...I am happy she found you!

[rubymoon2072]

congrats sounded like they picked the perfect home for her!!

[Mistymillar]

She looks like a sweet little doll, whoever left her chose her new home well.

[OwnedByJezebel]

Awww, what a sweet story!

Did they also cut out the identity of the vet clinic that gave her the shots? If you have that info and the dates of service, they may be able to determine the previous owners.

[MyTrixie143]

Wow what a story!! Congrats on your new addition!! She is adorable and I love the name you picked for her.
I'm glad they picked you to be her new owner because who knows where that little girl would have ended up or what would happen to her if given to someone else.

Bordetella given via the nostril is a live virus. The shot/injection is a killed virus.
If she is still coughing I would say she has kennel cough now. I would take her back to the vet and get her some antibiotics bad sadly it will probably take a while for her to get over. That's why I hate the nasal bordetella, I've seen so many get KC from it.

[SWHouston]

Yorkiemom1,
Uooo Live !, She's not getting any better (coughing more frequently). I called the Vet today to tell of this, but didn't actually make an appointment. She recommended that I come by and pick up some Cough Suppressant. Is there a test for the KC ?

OwnedByJezebel,
There may be enough info on those papers where if I tried I could probably trace back to the previous owner. But, given that they wanted to remain anonymous, I'm somewhat reluctant to go there. However, if I suspect that they dumped Navi on me, because they knew she was going to have problems, I'd probably see that we had some face time.

That/this isn't going to prevent me from seeing that She's a well Dog at some point.

MyTrixie143,
We were posting at the same time. Then, I'll take Navi with me tomorrow and have the Vet check that.

[SWHouston]

The longer I sit here the more ticked off I am about this (IF it's KC) !
So simply one just need to demand the Injection method to prevent this ?
Is the KC contagious ? Are my other guys in any jeopardy, given they've all had the Nasal application some months ago ?

GURRRRR

I don't know what I was thinking asking if KC was contagious, of course it is ! But, since my other three have had the Nasal Bordetella, they should be ok...that's what I meant.
