LONG BUT WORTH IT.
So because I'll probably bring up the dogs a few times, I might as well introduce you to them and tell you the story on how i got my newest. I love larger dogs. I'll eventually get a Shiba Inu when I move into my own place. My mom however is allergic, so small is the way to go anyway.
I love them, I am very picky with anything they eat/do/etc. They are spoiled.
In some pictures you may see, they will be in sweaters. This is only in the wintertime, and they love it. I do not dress up my dogs. Louie does no wear sweaters cus he doesn't like them.
Shiver (Black and tan) is an 8 year old Chihuahua Miniature Pinscher cross. She sticks more to my mother. She is a complete snob and a suck.
Maggie (Red) is a miniature pinscher. She is a skittish and awkward, and tends to stick to me. She loves to lie under covers, doesn't matter how warm it is outside or in the house.
Louie is our newest (Blonde chihuahua)
So finally, Louie's story:
My boyfriend is currently living with his sister Lisl. Lisl is an animal hoarder, and doesn't care for them. She currently has 2 cats amongst the other animals, both of whom have 4 kittens each. She bought Louie one year ago when he was too young to be taken. Bought him as a teacup chihuahua (Breeding the runt of a litre over and over again, often dangerous for the mom)
For the past year, I have seen many different types of abuse and neglect
- Beatings
- Locking him in rooms without food or water for 12+ hours
- They had a larger dog, and was feeding him the same food since he was a pup. The kibbles were too large and he could barely chew them. When big dog left, they fed him smaller adult dog food, but he still wouldn't eat.
- When dog food ran out, she never bought more. He was forced to eat the cat food.
- They never house trained him. When he went on the floor after not being let out for sometimes days straight, they beat him and locked him in the rabbit cage. Cold, hard floor. Rabbit food and water thrown around. Nothing else.
- A toddler who was allowed to do whatever she wanted with him while Lisl laughed. She would pick him up like a stuffed animal
I was sick of it. I had shed tears over the treatment of the dog, and had been trying to get him out of the house. Finally, she agreed. I paid 200, and took him. He wasn't originally going to stay with me, but he fit in so well.
We took him to the vet. He had to get all his puppy shots redone and had to get 8 teeth pulled out. (His adults grew and his puppys never fell out, so he had shark teeth). We also got the poor little guy neutered.
His spine and ribs no longer show as much, and he is almost completely house trained
He loves being petted, but hides when anybody raises their voice or if he, say, gets sick. Poor little guy. He has now been with us for 3 months :santa:
Has anyone else rescued some needy pets?
