This sweet lady lost her human and as a result lost her home. She was living in an assisted living facility, and unfortunately, her health was deteriorating and no one stepped in. Her human passed away so the family contacted us. Maggie is 12.8 years old and is currently being treated for her yeasty skin, fungal and bacterial infections. Her ears are infected as well and she has a 4/6 heart murmur. She is receiving medicated baths and had a full work up with our vet last week. She also had a cardio work up because there was some concern with her going under anesthesia for an upcoming dental but her results came in pretty darn good for a gal her age. Just one year ago, Maggie was 22 lbs and came to us at 14 lbs. She is grossly underweight but we’ve already managed to get her to gain 2 lbs! She will need time in foster care to get her back to her beautiful self. She is a perfect girl for her baths and loves to go on short walks despite her very arthritic knees. Considering all she’s been through, she is a very sweet dog that wants to please.
