UPDATE: We had mixed news on Thursday concerning this beautiful girl. Her tail was severed. We had hoped for a spay and surgical repair on her tail on Thursday, but her blood work was mixed good news and bad news so we have opted to hold off for more testing. When your kidney values are fine but your liver values are off the charts something is not right. We do not want to put her through surgery if it’s something that will not be life-changing for her. Bobbi Bobtail has found a foster home, and is loving the chance to relax and chill out for a few weeks. We felt a different name was in order and decided on “Neva Sue,” in honor of a very special lady who celebrated a birthday yesterday. Neva Sue is gentle with other dogs, accepts the cats, and seems to be housetrained. She is a senior, and our biggest concern is that her high liver values indicate problems that are irreversible. We feel that Neva Sue deserves the best we can give her while she is in our care. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to find a home where she could be a forever hospice dog, if that is what is indicated with follow-up blood work in a few weeks? That’s what our goal is! We look forward to updates from her foster mom as Neva Sue’s tail amputation surgery completes healing. She is 10 years old, and of course the sweetest dog you could ever find! - - -

Sweet BOBBI was found roaming the neighborhood, sporting a bloody stump of a tail, where an an accident of unknown origin severed half her tail. Neighbors don't know to whom she belongs, but called her a "neighborhood dog," and had just accepted that she lived somewhere.  We are so grateful to the resident who called for help for her before the ice storm and bitter cold ravaged our area, as she would truly have had no chance of survival in those conditions if she had not been found. She is doing well now, four days later, with a pressure bandage on her tail, and she is scheduled for corrective surgery on Thursday, February 25, when she will also be spayed. What a great senior she is! Loving, gentle, appreciative of the technicians caring for her at the vet.  She appears to be fine with other dogs, and also appears to be housetrained.
