Ralph 07-051 [1]

2/23/07: Ralph arrived at my home today after being in a shelter for over a month. He was a stray that nobody claimed. Ralph is a senior dog estimated to be around 10. He is slightly underweight and could stand to gain about 5 lbs. He had most vaccinations while at the shelter and was neutered. He did test positive for Lymes and had a 1 month treatment of antibiotics. He was negative for heartworm. I already have had him at the vet. He really has trouble getting around. He was put on anti-inflammatories but it is suggested he have x-rays. He also needs some teeth extracted and a growth on his bottom biopsied. He is a very sweet, laid back senior. He pretty much has ignored my dogs. I am guessing he is not housebroken as he has had a few accidents. He is also HOH (hard of hearing).

If weather permits I will be bring him to PetSmart in Eagan on 2/24/07.
