Abby needs a home

We received a plea from a local vet clinic indicating this little girl had literally been thrown away by the owner and if nothing could be found for her, she would be euthanized. We figured -- it's a nine month old, female, 13 pound Yorkie/Maltese mix - surely we can find something good for her quickly. (She was purchased from a puppy mill. We have all her paperwork.)


To make a VERY long story short, Abby was evidently kept crated her entire life which has left her with some behavioral issues. Our vet (who is also a behaviorist) believes strongly this girl can be normal in time if she has someone that will be patient with her -- and COMMIT to her rehabilitation.

Because Yorkies and Maltese often have hereditary physical problems, we have done all our due diligence testing -- bile acid testing for possible liver shunt, chem balance testing, cbc, etc. All test results are normal. Abby is completely healthy. She is temporarily living at the vet clinic.

I know I am asking a lot. But I believe with all my heart there is someone out there that is capable and nurturing and will give this girl the chance she never had. She was kept confined in a prison from 8 weeks of age to 8 months of age. Please don't let her life end now.
