Why I need a new home

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


My name is Dori Mousaw, i live in Stockton, CA. and I have a male dachshund, age 12 years, that I am in the need of finding a new home. I've had him, Wizzy, since birth and he has had health issues since birth. But, with his age, they are getting steadily worse, and I am unable to care for him properly.

My male is 12 years old. Weights 19lbs. and has a chronic skin infection issue. His father had manage really bad most of his life and I think Wizzy inherited it. I have always been able to keep it under control but now, with his age. I am just not able to.

His vet Sandeep Chahal at the Animal Hospital in Lodi, CA. has been trying all different medications, shampoos, and lotion but nothing is seeming to work anymore, Wizzy is also very anxious all the time and I think his itching and skin problems are because of that.

I moved a year ago and my rent went from $500 a month to $900 a month, so my disposable income is not what it use to be. I have had to put off paying rent a few times.
