so my niece called me a few weeks ago hysterical....she had found a shitzu puppy in the middle of the highway......i told her to take her to the vet in bandera and i would come pick it up in a few days.....boy was she a mess.....all matted and filthy and about to starve to death.......from the looks of her she had been abandoned for quite awhile.....in the country no less.....its amazing she survived.....we have had her about a week now and oh how she has bounced back.......all clean and healthy and getting fatter by the minute........my 4 year old shitzu jesse is still a little miffed but being very diplomatic....for the moment...
