Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Kasi, an 8.5 pound, 5 year old Yorkie girl being fostered in Leander, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.
Kasi started out life as a breeder baby however after she lost her first two litters the breeder gave her away to an elderly woman. Over the years Kasi's owner only took her to the vet twice and at the last visit she was told that Kasi needed ear ablation of both ears due to chronic untreated ear infections. Since the owner could not afford the surgery, the vet recommended euthanasia. Kasi's owner thankfully declined the vet's recommendation and took her to the Humane Society to surrender her. Like many shelters these days they were at capacity so they reached out to a UYR fostering member who immediately picked her up. And that was the day that Kasi's luck changed for the better. After a visit to one of UYR's wonderful vets, Kasi is now undergoing treatment for those nasty ear infections and will go back for a follow up appointment in a few weeks to see if surgery will be required or not. Kasi also is a little overweight for her tiny frame at 8.5 lbs so we will work on getting her down to a healthy weight. Her fosters are still getting to know her however say that she is just as sweet as can be and appears to be 100% potty trained. We will keep you updated about this sweet baby-faced girl.
05/15/24 Pupdate: We just wanted to give you a quick update about our sweet Kasi. Kasi underwent surgery last week to complete a dental, spay, and to remove the growths in her ears. The ear surgery ended up being more extensive than expected however Kasi is healing very well and her hearing has already improved. She had a check up yesterday and the doctor says that her ears are looking great! Kasi fosters say that she is a very good girl and just as sweet as can be. She has already slimmed down a little due to her new lower fat diet. Meal times are still her favorite part of the day. Please stay tuned as we will keep you updated about Kasi's progress as she continues to heal.
