Name: Poppy
Sex: Male (not altered)
Breed: Chihuahua
Age: 5-8 years
Location: Glen Burnie, MD
Vet/Medical Info: No vet info available as background unknown.
Owner Info: This little guy was found in Tampa, Florida on 2/5 and his owner was unable to be located. He appeared to be covered with grime, they gave him a few baths but couldn't get the grime off, turned out they were bruises. A family member brought him to his current home on 2/17 because the vet in Florida recommended that he just be euthanized and they did not want that to happen. They need to find a home for him because they already have two furkids of their own and are unable to keep this new little guy. They have called him Poppy because his eyes pop out. Poppy is currently an indoor dog with the run of the house, he is housebroken and leash trained, good with adults and good with other dogs. After just six days he knows his way around the house. They took him to the vet on 2/20. Dr. said he has "some" shadow vision in his right eye, none in his left due to "blood pooling" - possibly head trauma either from getting hit by a car or abuse. Other than his vision, the vet told them he appears in good health. They had them do a fecal test on which came back negative for worms/parasites despite being "on the run" for an unknown amount of time. This little guy is very, very sweet and a true lap dog. Whatever he has gone through over the last unknown amount of time has not affected his ability to love and cuddle. As much as they would like to make him a part of their family, they are just not able to do so at this time and are hoping someone has the time/love to give this little guy. They are still searching the internet websites to see if they can find his owner in Florida but need to research other options as well.
