Hi! I was dumped on my mommy with another dog given to her by a breeder wanting to get rid of male Doxies no one would buy. He was healthy and I was not. Mommy had to sell the healthy boy she had named Nygil Lee too a sweet little old lady b/c she refused to give me to the local shelter that would have just put me down. They had named me Oddie, Mom gave me his second name Lee in honor of having to get rid of him to keep me, knowing how expencive it would be to care for me.
Within the first month mom came to find out that I needed weekly baths in oatmeal, I had sever epilepsy, and that I would need recourse in food aggresion training.
When I came to my new mommy I was under fed, had no hair, and had been left out in the sun in a cage that was too small and had grown into my skin. Now I have my own bed with blankets and pillows, baths with honey soap and fluffy towels, my own wardorobe, burn cover collection and a back yard to play in!!!
In my first 2 years of life I was miserable and I had to eat sleep and poop all in the same place. I will probably never unlearn this behavior, but now I have the most loving mommy in the whole world and she would never ever yell at me for these faults but corrects me every day to do it right. My bowl is always there and mommy can even play in it when I eat asking which bite is hers as I lick her hand. I have my fears about going out in the snow so mommy has an accident pad in the corner for me and I have more toys then any spoiled boy could ever want.
To all you boys and girls out there that are looking for your forever homes, I was badly abused b/c i was born blind and no one wanted me... but I'm here to say that there are humans like my mommy out there that will love you... so please don't give up, your wonderful human will come along.

You know what I dont understand why so many little dogs are in rescues and aspcas and they want so much money to adopt we want another little dog so bad but my husband and I are retired and dont have big bucks to adopt them breaks our heart we give our pets great love and care and we tried to adopt a chi and gave the lady our vets name and our prior vet is no longer in practice but they dont want us to have her and that is sad.I understand all the background but when one has what is necessary why prevent a little dog not getting a great home and us all on fixed incomes cant afford such high fees to adopt them.I am sorry just wanted to ask so afraid why so many still out there.hugscry
