Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Margaret is an incredibly sweet, 8 year old, long haired Chihuahua/Pomeranian mix. Seeing her bounce and strut around now you would never believe that she was so weak when rescued, she barely had the strength to walk. This little girl must have truly been on the verge of starvation and perhaps seriously anemic from the tremendous number of fleas she was infested with when first brought into the shelter. She was moved into a foster home about a week before Christmas and became a true Christmas miracle as she slowly made a miraculous recovery back to the land of the living. She now uses her foster mom’s dog door to go outside when she needs to excuse herself and she loves to be held. Her coat has gone from dull, dry, and brittle to thick and soft. Margaret has regained her appetite and is probably now at her ideal weight of about 9 pounds. Margaret is heart worm negative, spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and on heartworm and flea prevention. If you are interested in adopting this angelically sweet little gal that loves to be held, please visit: www.desphousedogs.com and fill out our applicaiton.
