WILLIE Willie is a purebred male Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier. His est. DOB is 9/09 Willie was abandoned by his family and left on a porch where he was picked up by animal control and ended up in a shelter. He was then adopted out but after the adopters got him shaved down and saw his condition they returned him to the shelter. We were contacted by another rescue group about him and picked him up from the shelter today. His revolving door at the animal shelter ends now! As you can see in the pictures, Willie is emaciated. He is very fragile and trembles if he stands or walks too far. Right now he is being crated and observed. He is drinking condensed sweetened milk mixed with his water to help put weight on quickly and stimulate his appetite. He will go and see the vet tomorrow to make sure there is no other issue going on other than being starved nearly to death. Even with all he has been through his tail still wags and he get excited when it is time to go out. He is very sweet and starved for attention, he loves to be petted and scratched especially. His skin is very dry and he has a pretty bad case of dandruff right now but that will get better as his health does. Willie is neutered and up to date on shots. |
