Mae
Mae is an adorable little 11 year old black female pug who is blind due to previously untreated dry eye & ulcers. She will need to be on eye drops for the rest of her life, but is otherwise in good health. Mae can be very temperamental and will snap unprovoked (most likely due to her lack of vision). She was recently started on a medication that we hope will help to ease her anxiety and make her more happy.
Yoda
Yoda is an approx. 12 year old girl who came to NIPRA in November of 2007. She has what is believed to be degenerative disc disease in her spine, which causes her to have some weakness in her hind end and has left her incontinent. She wears a diaper in the house and is on a prescription diet for urinary issues. Yoda cannot go up or down stairs on her own but she is still a very spunky girl who loves to play with toys. As her mobility decreases, she will most likely need the assistance of a doggy wheelchair. Luckily, a generous NIPRA supporter has donated a used cart that Yoda will be able to use when that time comes.
Sara
Sara is an approx. 14 year old fawn female pug with a very sweet disposition. She came to us when her previous owner had to move into an assisted living facility and could not take Sara along. Sara is house trained, loves people, and is very good at wagging her tail. She is very healthy & still kind of spunky for her age.
