Now in the care of Heather's Foster Dogs, Percy is a 15 y.o., blind, deaf, arthritic Yorkshire Terrier mix who was dumped, not given up at a shelter, but dumped suffering from severe malnourishment, abscessed teeth & an inverted eyelid.

25/03/2022

Percy has been released.
Unfortunately Percy could not long enjoy the relief of his eyelid no longer being inverted, of having no diseased & abscessed teeth, of being held, of being fed decently. Percy's kidneys had been abused too long.

Percy immediately was taken to Heather's Foster Dogs vet for evaluation & further medical attention. Thought to be approximately 15 years old Percy & 8 pounds, as well as being severely malnourished, was found to be blind, deaf, arthritic, have an inverted eyelid which had ulcerated that eye, have several abscessed teeth, a minor heart murmur & keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eye syndrome). Further examination showed Percy's heart, lungs, kidney & liver functions were high enough to give him a good chance to make it through surgery. The vet prescribed an antibiotic, an ointment for the ulcerated eye, a pain reducing drug & eye drops. Surgery was scheduled for Tuesday, 22 March to removed abscessed teeth & to correct Percy's inverted eyelid. Tests later revealed Percy was infested with hookworms; a dewormer was added to his medications.
