Chase was adopted today 6/29/23! Chase came to United Yorkie Rescue because his owner could no longer afford his care. He had a possible liver shunt. This adorable bundle of energy certainly showed no signs of being sick, but his medical records indicated otherwise. It showed there was something going on with his liver. After several vet visits including bile acid tests and bloodworks twice he was diagnosed with a liver condition called PVH-MVD (portal vein hypoplasia-microvascular dysplasia). That's a lot for a 2 1/2 year old little guy. It meant he would have to be on his prescription liver diet for life. It meant he would be prone to urine infections, crystals in his urine that could turn into stones, and it meant he would need a home with adoptive parents willing to work closely with their vet to give him the care he would need in order to live a long and happy life.
Chase now has a family to do that exact thing for him. His new mom and dad are ready and willing to give him all the care he will need forever. They know he is a bundle of energy and because he loves his walks he will get to go on lots and lots of them. He has a fenced yard to not only run laps but to make sure all the squirrels and lizards and birds understand this is his territory and that it is his job to chase them away. After all Chase is his name. Life couldn't be better for this sweet boy. He just has to remember that he has to share it all with the kitties who have been there longer. Chase found his perfect forever family. Happy Tails, Chase. Welcome to your new long and happy life.
