Every Dog Has a Tail!

Update 08/25: We were almost afraid to write the latest update.  During her spay and dental, the vet found a small lump, it was in the mammary gland, so he removed the entire area and we sent it in for a biopsy.  It was mercifully fast for the response...benign...Princess made it over her (hopefully) final hurdle.

Princess has been housebroken, but uses potty pads or newspaper.  She loves walksies, but won't go outside to potty without her human companions.  She loves being carried, adores laps, likes snuggly beds and is settling in nicely.  She has been through so much and yet has an incredible spirit.  The groomers at PetSmart who helped shave off her final matts think she might be part Chinese Crested - imagine if that was the reason for the thin hair?  If only her owner had taken the time to turn her in and leave information.

Update 08/21: Princess is from Animal Welfare League.  We were delivering supplies to the crowded shelter and had not intended to pick up any dogs, much as we wanted to.  But then we saw Princess.  She had been overlooked a couple of times, cowering in the cage and, here was the worst part, nearly naked.  She had severe hair loss in many places.

So, we have been running a battery of tests.  Was it Cushings? Something auto-immune?  Perhaps just a simple allergy or mites?  We do not yet know.  But we wanted you to know the amazing story of this little girl.

Princess was abandoned, literally, when someone moved out and left her with the remaining tenants, who did not want her.  She had never been spayed, nor had a dental, and she was confused and afraid at the shelter.  Once in a foster home; however, she became an amazing dog.  Papertrained and housebroken, she made herself at home with the best doggie beds and the comfiest laps.

Princess is all lap dog and we hope her tests will show that she will have a chance to find a great home.
