Chi weenies!!! Need I say more!!  This little group of siblings was found on a dirt road in rural Arkansas.  They were in horrid condition, no hair and covered in parasites.  These little ones came to Needy Paws Rescue and upon arrival seemed to be very sick.  One of them was very lethargic and needed immediate medical attention.  The others soon followed.  Three of the puppies went to VSS where they were diagnosed with Parvo.  It took a week for them to recover and get back into their foster home. These five babies were also diagnosed with Demodex mange, this the hair loss.   They have been treated and the coats are coming in nicely.  They have been in their foster home for over a month and are now ready to start the search for their new forever homes.  These pups are 16 weeks old now and will be ready for their home the weekend of August 15.
Erica, female, the biggest of the litter currently weighing 9 pounds.  She did not break with Parvo.  She has the black on her face.  She is an independent girl that knows how to entertain herself. 
 

Ericka is a typical puppy that will require ongoing training.
