Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Fields – 9 month old male Miniature Schnauzer/ShihTzu mix. Fields was rescued from a LA county shelter where he came in as a stray. We noticed he was at a private vet so called to see what was wrong and if he needed rescuing. They told us he had tested postive for parvo. Before we could commit to taking him we lined up one of our vets that could isolate and treat him. We called back the shelter to say was could take him, they then told us he had a bad hip also. After rescuing him he went straight to our vet for monitoring, isolating and evaluating him. The good news turned out he was parvo free, the bad news is he had hip dysplasia in both hips and required surgery. We got his GI problems resolved and had an orthopedic vet evaluate him. They subsequently did do bio-lateral FHO (femoral head ostectomy) surgery on 5/3/2019. He had 6 weeks of swim therapy to help strengthen him up. He is now fully recovered and ready to find a new home! Fields came to us very heavy at 14 pounds... but we are proud to say we widdled his weight down to 11 pounds. Fields would do best in a home with another doggie pal and in a house setting (he can be too vocal for apartment or condo living).
