Please only send inquiries to the email in this bio all others will not be answered. Please read the bio before sending questions - we answer all we know about the dog here. If the question is not answered in the bio please send emails to   [email protected] Best home for Mr Pillow is one that understands older dogs. Mr Pillow is almost blind and partially deaf so must approach with care. He is very food and treat motivated. Senior Chihuahua On The Euthanasia List At County SShelterand Needed Urgent Life Saving Surgery Pillow's journey to our county shelter began tragically as he was found wandering the streets, alone and vulnerable. His once bright eyes are now shadowed by mature cataracts, making it challenging for him to navigate the world around him. The heavy flea dirt covering his body indicates an ongoing struggle against these relentless parasites. Pillow's situation is further aggravated by periodontal disease and several multifocal cutaneous and subcutaneous masses, including a large, ulcerated, alopecic mass on his ventral neck, measuring approximately 20-25cm in diameter. Our immediate concern is the life-threatening medical conditions that Pillow faces. The X-ray results have revealed multifocal spondylosis deformans, a painful spinal issue that compromises his mobility significantly. Pillow also needs urgent surgical procedures, including a neuter and the removal of perilous masses. His severe health conditions not only cause immense discomfort but also pose a risk to his life if not addressed promptly. Pillow's current condition leaves us with no option but to act immediately to prevent further deterioration. Our dedicated team at the county shelter has mobilized all available resources to ensure Pillow receives the care he desperately needs. We've initiated a thorough medical assessment to understand the full extent of his health challenges, lining up plans for his required surgeries and treatments.
