WE RESCUE YORKIES
AND
OTHER SMALL BREEDS

Update 2/29/12:  Before going in for surgery the Dogtor did some more tests, including an ultrasound.  Looks like I have a brain disorder causing me to have seizures and not liver shunt, although I most likely have MVD in addition.  So for now, it looks like I will be taking some new medication and will have a special diet.  My temporary foster mom in PA was very distraught after seeing me have 2 very bad seizures - she holds me close and comforts me.  It will take a very special person to adopt me but I know you are out there.

Update 2/28/12:  Today I saw the special Dogtor - had to go all the way to PA.  Looks like I am a candidate for surgery.  I am scared but know that everyone in the rescue squad is praying for me.  Surgery is scheduled for tomorrow and then I will spend a few days in the hospital before going back to my foster home.  Keep your fingers crossed that everything goes well.

Update 2/21/12:  The Rescue Squad will be treating me for a possible liver-shunt.  This means a low protein diet, along with daily medication.  They will be monitoring me for the next 2 weeks before making any further decisions as to my treatment.  In the meantime, they have set up this ChipIn fund to help get me started because if I need liver shunt surgery, it is going to cost the Rescue Squad quite a few thousand dollars to help me!

Update  2/20/12  Anabelle is only available for sponsorship at this time.  She suffered a seizure yesterday and is having tests done to see what the cause might be.

I am a tiny little thing.  I weigh about 5 pounds.  I am a rather quiet girl- I do not bark.  I like to prance around the house and explore every corner. I love to snuggle with my fur siblings and in the arms of my foster mommy.  I'm still a bit shy when I'm first picked up but I love to give my mommy doggie kisses.  I'm so well behaved in cars, I just take a nap on my foster mommys lap.  My adoption fee is $400 and you can fill out an application online at www.yorkie911rescue.com.
