My name is Casper!

Meet sweet Casper, a handsome 10 month old, 10 pound Yorkie mix boy being fostered in Austin, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered,
Pupdate: Meet your new best friend! Casper is the definition of a cuddle bug. He wants to be with his people all the time and will gladly repay your love and constant presence with all his affection. Casper loves to chase squirrels in the yard with our resident dog. He does great with kids and is pretty much house trained. Hes only about 11 months old so every once in a while he might forget the rules and have an accident, but he promises hes doing his best! When meeting new dog friends he can sometimes take a minute to warm up but will quickly be down to play.


Casper recently had his 4 week follow up x-rays at the vet and his fractured pelvis is healing so well!! He's cleared for almost all activities; the vet still wants him to avoid jumping for a few more weeks. Casper was neutered on 3/11 so he is ready to go to his new forever home asap!

This precious 10mth old United Yorkie Rescue baby has a story and I wish he could speak. Casper came to us through an area shelter. He was found limping and taken to a nearby ER. After assessment for unknown trauma, he was sent to the shelter. The shelter had xrays performed due to heavy bruising in the inguinal area and around his scrotum. He was found to have a fracture in his pelvis. We have no idea what had happened to this sweet baby. What we do know is that we have this sweet puppy now and can guarantee you that he will have his best life ever.

Casper was immediately taken to our vets for assessment and he is on strict crate rest. This trauma injury could be one of abuse or something that had to have hit him fairly hard to cause the bruising under his tummy around the scrotum area. He can stand for a short time, but this is definitely painful so he sits within just a few seconds. He is quite wobbly as well on flooring. He is on crate rest, pain meds and a laxative while his body heals. His foster mom is currently assisting him with a sling for standing to help him urinate and defecate as this assists on the strain on him to perform these functions. We have a few months of healing before Casper will be ready for adoption, but please feel free to send your application in and or address your questions to his foster mom through the email listed below. As you may know, Caspers care will require continual xrays, possible hydrotherapy, and cold laser therapy for his best healing. Your donations to his care would be greatly appreciated as we have another little girl who is currently receiving critical care for her medical care.

We thank you for your love, and bless you for all you do for our babies!
