Vet bills grew trying to determine the cause and treatment for Binky's medical problem.
Binky is an adorable 8-10 pound 1 year old chihuahua. She is good with dogs, cats and kids once she gets to know them. She is very loving with her caretakers. Binky has a medical condition where she leaks urine. It would take a special family willing to keep her in diapers and/or get medical care for her condition. Our organization has already paid hundreds of dollars in testing to see what is wrong with her and so far we have not found an answer. We cannot justify spending any more money at this point.
5/21/09 UPDATE: Binky has these adorable pink diapers with ruffles. But there is no convincing her that they are adorable. When she sees us get one out she runs for the hills. When we coax her out of hiding she reluctantly stays while we slip one on her. Then she sits with her ears back and quiet like she's being punished. She is so funny! She's like a little kid. But in all seriousness if Binky wants to be on a lap she needs her diaper on. Her "leaking" has no consistency. Sometimes she leaks very little and sometimes a puddle. That is the biggest issue with her. Behaviorally she is the sweetest thing under the sun. Great with everyone and as sweet as sweet gets.
10/18/09 UPDATE Binky is doing just fine in her foster home. While her medical condition hasn't changed she is always making her foster family laugh. She jumps up on the back of their chairs and jumps on their shoulders and licks them, so cute! She loves playing with the other little dog in the house and crawls on top of one of the big dogs to nap.
8/10/10 Sorry for the long time between updates. Things are busy, busy. Binky is still doing just fine in her foster home. She seems to be having less leaking but still unpredictible. If someone was willing to manage the situation they would get a great dog.
