Seeing more of this as the years go on….. I got a call from a past client who I used to take care of her Yorkshire terrier who has very strange, coloring little girl, but so sweet. She called me yesterday in tears, and she and her husband are getting quite elderly and are no longer able to look after the little dog. The husband has cardiac care and other things to contend with. She has arthritis and back problems and stuff so they have had to give up their little dog.
I reached out to a rescue who has agreed to back me in taking care of her. I’ll foster her and she will be up for adoption through the rescue after she gets vet care.
When I was brushing her a little bit today she yipped every time I touched her ears, so I’m thinking possibly an ear infection and other stuff but I need to get her to the veterinarian for.
Otherwise she eats well. She’s not sick or she doesn’t have diarrhea,  she was out around the backyard with the other dogs today. Totally chill. 
The E collar is on because she has a little inflammation around her mouth and if she doesn’t have the cone on, she will scratch it stupid. So I want to get her into the vet get her examined and cared for and hopefully nothing major but I don’t think so.
She just had a little neglect, even though her mom would bathe her brush her take care of her. She can’t really do that either anymore and bless her baby heart, she doesn’t mind being back at my place.  I did put a little anti-inflammatory therapy on her skin today because she has quite a few little red bald spots. 😥
