Mavis and Porsche Update

Hi all, I see Mavis has been here telling her own story - what a smartypants that one is....

Anyway - just wanted to update y'all on Mavis and Porsche - the good news is that Porsche found a foster home (at least a short term one) so she is spending the holidays in a nice warm home with a loving foster family - Go Porsche! She'll still be at adoptions on saturdays so PLEASE come see her.

The bad news is that mavis is still at the kennel and when her best friend Porsche left - she got so depressed the staff moved her to closer to the kitchen so they could keep an eye on her and she could see them. They have been great with her - even cuddling up in her run with her so she doesn't feel so lonely.

The other bad news is that the vet found protein in Mavis' urine and through blood tests thinks she might have a slight kidney issue - though she is completely asympomatic and even the vet said IF she DOES have a kidney issue - she is THE HEALTHIEST kidney issue dog he's ever seen. I guess the cause of the protein is hard to identify and may NEVER cause her any problems, but I want to be completely honest and up front with folks who might be interested in her. She'll be going back to the vet this week for some more tests to rule out anything serious. I'll keep you all posted.

So, there it is - think positive thoughts for Mavis this week and let's hope that someone comes to adoptions tomorrow and falls head over heels in love with her!

One last note - if you or anyone you know are interested in helping cover some of Mavis' expenses, please let me know. I hate putting this out there but i really have no choice at this point. You can contribute directly to me, to the kennel she's boarded at or to The Paw'd Squad Animal Rescue in Mavis' name.

Thanks for reading and giving Mavis a chance,

Tina
