This is our "Dusty Dawg". We rescued him two years ago the afternoon before he would be to be "put down". He was a sad and skinny dog. The day after we got him I took him to the vet for a normal check-up and discovered he had heart worms and the previous owner had never taken him to have any of his shots and he'd never been to a vet's before. After a week of very intensive and expensive treatment, Dusty is now a healthy, happy (and 30 pounds heavier - LOL) part of our family. During the day, his favorite spot to sleep is on my son's bed but at night, he sleeps with mommy and daddy.
The shelter that we found Dusty at is the Porter County (Indiana) animal shelter: http://www.petfinder.com/shelters/portercoanimalshelter.html

u go...e rescued a doxie about 4 months ago...heartworm positve never been out of cage bowel obstruction,ear infections rotted teeth you name it....now we haveone precious little girl!!!! We have a male too but both are fixed this really calmed him down and they are inseperable.
Yes dogs get constapated too. Our doxie had a bowel obstruction. Our vet reccommend that we give her a teaspoon of canned pumpkin when she gets that way. It take a day or so but it works. Use common sense too and don't feed anything that would be contapating to you or your pet.
Thank you for saving him,he has the face of an angel.
He's one cute little guy and to think he was going to be put down breaks my heart. You're a great person, i'm sure he realizes that too :)
