SPECIAL NEEDS - Meet Turtle! This delightful 4-month-old long-haired Miniature Dachshund is on a journey of resilience, weighing in at a petite 8 pounds. Anticipated to reach a sturdy 10-12 pounds when fully grown, Turtle's story began with a courageous battle against severe pulmonic stenosis, a condition characterized by the narrowing of the pulmonary valve, hindering blood flow from the heart to the lungs. This life-threatening condition led him to undergo a complex procedure at Texas A&M University Small Animal Hospital in early May.
Despite the valiant efforts, Turtle's pressure gradient reduction from 175 to 100 fell short of expectations, though optimism prevails for further improvement post-inflammation. As he navigates through recovery, Turtle has become a poster pup for resilience, facing each day with a wagging tail and unwavering spirit. Lifelong medication, including Atenolol, coupled with regular cardiac check-ups, underscore the need for a steadfast adopter who can provide him with the tender care he deserves once he's back to full health.
In the midst of his medical journey, Turtle's zest for life shines through, as he embraces outdoor adventures, leisurely walks, car rides, and blissful naps. While he's an instant hit with adults and teenage kiddos, Turtle approaches tiny humans with cautious curiosity, preferring a calm environment where sudden movements and loud noises don't ruffle his feathers.
Despite the hurdles he's faced, Turtle's heart knows no bounds when it comes to sharing his boundless affection and playful charm. With the love and support of a dedicated forever family, Turtle's journey promises to be one filled with love, laughter, and countless heartwarming moments. His adoption fee is $650 and he is currently with a foster in PEARLAND, TX. Apply to adopt today and give this sweet boy the loving forever home he deserves! www.tpsrescue.com
