Jesse Ray
Jesse Ray formerly "Dean", this 4 lb ball of love will steal you heart. He currently has a heart murmur that needs to be checked out by a specialist. The best way to assess a murmur is an echo cardiogram, done at the specialty center here in town. This will help us determine if the murmur is caused by heart failure, and whether or not it will need further treatment. Poor little Dean is also missing his lower part of his jaw. Originally, the shelter thought he may have been born without it, but when our veterinarian looked at it, she determined that his jaw was missing due to severe dental disease. His old owners allowed his mouth to get so badly infected that the bone disintegrated to the point that his lower mandible is basically gone. After we make sure that his heart is stable enough to go under anesthesia he will need a deep cleaning of his mouth, and to remove a few remaining teeth that he has left.
Although this little guy has a few medical hurdles to overcome you would never guess it by his upbeat attitude and adventurous personality.

Neutron
Neutron is a 12 year old mixed breed, who lives up to his new name.This sweet old man loves to curl up in blankets and snooze all day, and also loves in his fosters yard and sun bathe.
Grandpa has a large mass on his shoulder that we need to biopsy and remove to make sure it is not cancerous or invasive.
While he is under anesthesia the doctor would like to remove some diseased teeth to make it easier for Neutron to eat without any pain. Neutron also has one, possible two, oronasal fistulas, which are holes in his mouth (usually where teeth have been pulled, or fallen out) that connect all the way to the nasal cavity, which can cause infection if not treated.
Neutron has quickly stolen are hearts and we would love to get him in tip top shape to enjoy his golden years comfortably.

Tiny Tim
Tiny Tim formerly "Bobo", is a 14 year old Chihuahua who tips the scales at 6 lbs. He gets his moniker from the way he walks. This cutie has an old injury, most likely a dislocated hip, that was never treated, which healed on it's own and now gives him a big of a hobble.
Much like Jesse, Timmy has a heart murmur that needs to be checked out by a specialist, and requires an echo cardiogram. This will help us determine if the murmur is caused by heart failure, and whether or not it will need further treatment.
He also has pretty bad dental disease and will need most, if not all of his remaining teeth removed, once we find out whether or not he is okay to go under anesthesia.
Tiny Tim is enjoying his new life with his foster family while he waits for his medical tests, and is currently living with 2 small children, 2 other little dogs, a tortoise and birds.
