We drove two hours to look at a dog listed by a rescue group for chihuahuas. His photo showed what we thought was a cute healthy dog. We were abhorred to see a little frightened dog whose body was broken; he was blind and deaf and did not have teeth. Our hearts broke for him and we knew we had to give him love and comfort.
The vet said he had a strong heart but so many broken bones that were not treated and he was too old for surgery. We love him dearly and he is a delight. We feed him by hand standing up as he is unable to sit. He is loving and funny and whatever extra time and care he needs is so worth his well-being. So whatever time he has left he is loved and is comfortable.
