Story
Sir Winston Bailey came to us very ill and thin, in diabetic ketoacidosis, after the people caring for him failed to give him insulin for over a month. His owner had loved him very much, but had been hospitalized. His vet called us, as she new this dog had way too much spunk to not be treated. We have had him since May and have been making sure he gets the best of care. He is a 9 year old Yorkie, now almost 9 pounds (he was 5 lbs when we got him) and is both blind and diabetic. Because of his small size, his diabetes has been harder to control that many diabetic dogs, although he is doing much better. Any adopters must take on the cost of his care (about $300 monthly for insulin, prescription dog food, and glucose sensors, with up to $2000 in a hypoglycemic emergency), keep up his monitoring with the Univ of Illinois Internal Medicine Department at the Vet School, and keep him on strict feeding and exercise schedules. His diabetes does lead him to pee more frequently, although he is generally pretty good with puppy pads. Bailey is a wonderful dog, affectionate and brave, undaunted by all that has happened to him medically. He is down to four teeth, but he still tells off big dogs, although has been great with the dogs and cats in his foster home. He has been a favorite of all who have met him. HIs $300 adoption fee covers his many vet visits, vaccines, heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, deworming medication, and microchip registration.
