Max is going to lose his leg 1 Attachment(s) OK Yorkie rescue got a call today about a yorkie surrendered at the shelter that needed care. They told our volunteer that his foot and leg were swollen and had a horrible smell. She runs to get him and then to the ER vet clinic. His leg had been wrapped to tight and had cut off the blood circulation. After tests and x-rays they will have to amputate poor Max's leg. OKYR will have him into the vet first thing in the morning and start working to get Max well and on his road to recovery. Please pray for this poor little guy! |
Bless his heart - he will certainly be in my thoughts and prayers. :hands: Seeing & hearing about things like this just puts knots in my stomach. |
Thank you, OK Yorkie Rescue! This is sad, but you do good work. At least there's hope that he'll survive now. Poor baby! :( I just sent in a small donation. It's not much, but I think even a little bit has to help right now. :thumbup: |

Poor Max, that video just made me heartsick. I am glad he will be in good hands and well cared for . |
I just made a donation for the care of Max and hope that others will do so as well. :thumbup: YTers are always very generous and have helped with many other fosters in the past. Let's all step up and help OKYR too to care for Max! :( |
Oops..I forgot to add a note that my donation was for Max, but that's okay. It will go to a yorkie in need no matter what. :) Yes, let's all donate at least a little something to help. :thumbup: |

1 Attachment(s) I sure will say a prayer for Max. I know just how it is to have a tri-pod. Max should do well in his recovery but will find it hard to get comfortable, even after healing. I have a stuffed Saint Bernard that mine likes to lie on. He snuggles up between his legs with his resting on the stuffed dog's body. Cha-Z sends his best to Max, too! :) |
Oh poor guy. I hope the surgery goes well. |
So glad he is in good care now:aimeeyork |
What a sweet little guy! I am keeping Max in my prayers. Good job, ladies! |
OH!!! Poor baby. Bless your hearts. Now he has a good chance on a wonderful life. |
Prayers for Max, will make a donation tonight when I get home from work. I am glad he is in your care. I have so much respect and admiration for the rescue organizations I read about on Yorkie Talk. |
Sent a donation in for Max. |
Bless his heart! I just made a donation, but didn't see anywhere to indicate it's for Max. Doesn't matter though. Thank you for what you do. |
Update on Max: Two of the doctors at our vet clinic have looked at Max's leg and xrays. The opinion of three doctors is now that his leg can't be saved. We have scheduled surgery for Wed. That will give more time for antibiotics to work and the swelling in his foot to go down. He is expected to recover quickly!! He... will also have his neuter on Wed. so keep him in your prayers!! |
Poor baby. I am making a donation for him. |

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you to all of you for your kindness and generosity in helping us help Max!! Continue to remember him in your prayers for a successful surgery and quick recovery. |
Max had his surgery to have his leg removed today. He is already home with his foster mom. She has reported that he is having a bit of a hard time getting comfy but did go out to potty and did really well. He has pain meds to help him get thru the next few days. Keep those prayers coming for Max. |
Wonderful news! Max sounds like such a little trooper :) |
