Meet Daisy
July 3, 2002 We received an email about a 5-7 year old lhasa who needed to come into rescue. Her elderly owner had died and the children didn't want Daisy.
July 17, 2002 When our volunteer first saw this dog, she cried. Daisy is a tiny, seven pound lhasa apso or maltese. She had TERRIBLE skin allergies and had chewed her tail, back and legs into an unrecognizable mess. She has a tumor about the size of a base ball on her stomach and little warts everywhere. With all of this, Daisy wouldn't stop waging that naked, red rat tail at Bekye. Although we had a ominous feeling that she wouldn't survive, we decided to accept Daisy into our rescue program. Our feeling was that even if we couldn't get her over all of these problems, we would provide her with lots of love and attention.

We were finally able to get Daisy to Houston to our "ICU" foster home. She's visiting the vet today. We do know that on top of that nasty skin and tumor, SHE HAS HEARTWORMS.

Daisy visited the vet this morning. Her bloodwork was good, but the chest x-ray showed a significant enlargement of the heart - no murmur, thankfully. Her tumor will be removed this afternoon. Keep your fingers crossed.
