My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Bacchus is a 13 yr old Chihuahua, he was previously adopted 9yrs ago and had a very loving home. He was the king of his castle,living as a pampered only dog. Unfortunately his owner is elderly and has become ill and no longer able ro physically care for Bacchus daily needs . He is currently on Enalapril 2.5 mg once daily for his heart he has a grade 4 heart murmur and also takes Denamarin 90mg once daily to help keep his liver enzymes within normal range. He has been on this medicine for several years and doing Great! He just recently the last week in October had a cbc blood test showing his counts all being within normal range. We just recently started him on Rimadyl 1/4 tab 25 mg at times he was showing some arthritic signs in his back end. Since starting he's shown absolute improvement and may not even need to continue taking long term yet to be discussed with his Doctor. We feel he would do best in a low key home with either no dogs or possibly one other dog after, meeting each other. Contact us to submit an application. Thanks!
