Description:
Nana is a senior toy poodle and is all sweetness. She weighs about 8 pounds. Although difficult to see in the photos, she has a hint of apricot coloring. Nana is almost 14 years old, is blind due to cataracts, has a collapsed trachea, an enlarged heart, and severe hearing impairment although she can hear some as she will respond to her name if you say it loudly, and to the other dogs barking. When she arrived at LDDR Nana smelled horrible, had matted fur and very long nails so was shaved and bathed. She was recently groomed and looks so pretty. Nana had a dental that required several extractions, but she is still able to eat well. She also had surgery to remove mammary tumors. X-rays show the tumors have not metastasized. Nana is a dog that absolutely loves to be cuddled, coddled, petted and fussed over--if her new family is willing. Once she knows where you are, she will try and follow you about, crawl into your lap and sleep in your arms. She is also learning, however, to be happy sleeping on her own bed or blanket when there are no comfy laps immediately available. And, even though she may initially seem anxious, confused and uncertain in a new home, we have found that within a few days and with some very gentle and consistent encouragement, she begins to settle down, master her environment and learn to trust in the predictability of her new routine and her new family.
Nana has had accidents in the house because she can't find the 'outside' fast enough. The foster mom takes her outside right away when she awakens and right after eating. At night she wears a diaper and is learning to yelp when she needs to go out. Nana needs a family with a big heart that will commit to the extra time and care she requires due to her age-related issues, and vision and hearing loss. She will likely take a very long time (perhaps a month or two or even longer) to feel fully comfortable in a new environment. Please contact Nana's foster mother, JJ Gallagher, at j-jarrett@att.net for further information or to meet Nana.
Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all dogs before adoption. AVID Microchips are implanted between the dog's shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the dog is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Dogs MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our dogs back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted dog.
The petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do
our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.
