OMG ~ I just couldn't stand it....

I contacted Save a Yorkie - they have a Long Island Volunteer, so I left her a message about this little one :(

Then I called the Shelter. She was found as a stray and brought in on 5/9 ~ They have to hold her for 5 dys giving the owner an opportunity to claim her. The girl I spoke with said that there are people that have expressed interest in her and have filled out apps for her. She will be available for viewing on 5/14 and anyone that is interested should go fill out an application and then has to show up on 5/14 :aimeeyork

I feel a tiny bit better....

Oh good! I was about to offer to let her stay with me until a home was found.. I just hope that this girl has a loving home (owner) that is looking for her!

She is still there! :eek:w up on her tomorrow if you are willing to keep her until a home can be found. She is a total little doll~poor baby must be so afraid. :(

She is soooo cute! I can't believe no one has taken her out of there? What happened to the rescue that was contacted..:confused:

I didn't know there was a rescue that was contacted. TLC said in her post that there had been interest in adopting her but she is still there. If she was closer YHR would take her in a minute but she is so far from me. :(

I just found this post. I work with a rescue group and we had our eye on her. We picked her up on Friday night. Saturday morning she was at my vets office.
My heart is breaking for her. She was in so much pain. When I got her home Friday night (1am) she wasnt able to stand on her back legs too long, she kept falling over. She has no hair on her back and pimples with dark pigment spots. The vet told me she thought she had cushings, Patellar luxation, and maybe a dislocated hip. We only did bloodwork- she was too sore to xray. The vet gave me pain meds for her. She slept in her bed and would not move. I took her bed and sat with her on my deck on Saturday and just kept looking at her. Saturday night I came on here and seen the thread from Willies Mom regarding cushings. My gut was telling me that is NOT what she had- poor nutrition, maybe thyroid was what I was feeling. Sunday mid morning she was actually walking around and giving her paw. Looking at the paperwork from the shelter we discovered they gave her every shot possible on Friday before we got her-rabies, kennel cough, all routine shots, wormer-everything. I was so mad. I am thankful she survived it. By yesterday afternoon, my gut was telling me duh- that is why she was in pain from shots and arthritis. Her bloodwork came back this morning normal. Sorry such a long post, but I am so thankful we rescued her.

she is cute i wish i could get her , just dont got the money to do it

thank God you have her! I can't believe they loaded her up with all those vaccines! :mad:

I hope she find a wonderful home but in the meantime I'm so glad she's safe and sound with you.

Bless your heart and hers.
I don't understand why educated vet's and personel continue to load
up little dogs with these drugs! If we, as laypeople, understand how
dangerous this is to toy dogs why the hell don't they? :eek:

I am so glad to hear that she is with you! :D Now I can feel confident that she will be well taken care of and be nursed back to health. I have to say that either these poor little rescue are over vaccinated or ignored. When I brought Truman home they had not done one single thing for him. He was so sick and ravaged with infection plus he was falling over from starvation!:mad: Give her some time to recover, maybe it is all from lack of care and good food.

Its so good to hear that someone came to this little girl's aid. Thank you for letting us know and please keep us updated on any changes!

Bless you for getting her!!

I am so glad this has turned out the way it has. Another little Yorkie has a chance at love. Thank you.

All I can say is thank you!!!
