Absolutely everyone who has met Shorty has
fallen in love with him! The shelter manager, the foster Mom,
and our vet all agree, he is a sweet, affectionate, "honey bun";
despite the fact that he has endured significant pain and
discomfort for well over a year. Shorty was diagonosed with
glaucoma in his left eye. His previous owner never treated him
for this painful condition and now his eye is inflamed and
bulging.
Shorty was examined by a veterinary
ophthalmologist on 11/29/07. The untreated glaucoma has left him
blind in his left eye – he does have vision in his right eye.
He is predisposed to develop glaucoma in his right eye. Both
eyes have normal pressure readings at this point. Shorty is now
on daily eye drops and eye ointments and must be rechecked in
March 2008. Shorty also has “cocker ears” and he needs weekly
ear cleaning.
In the meantime, Shorty is enjoying life
in his foster home; he's much more comfortable now, eating well,
and quite enamored with his foster Mom's very pretty girl
cocker. He's a laid back, easy going boy and he's immaculately
housetrained. Eight year old Shorty will be a wonderful
companion for some lucky adopter.
