About Minnie
Beautiful little Minnie is beginning the search for her forever family!
Best known as a little pocket rocket, Minnie is all puppy play and go go go! She is a sweet and fun loving girl who is just now learning about how much toys can be fun. Food is her number 2 love, and adores treats alll day long. Minnie has been spending her days in a foster home with other pets and adores them all.
This gorgeous girl is becoming available for adoption after having quite the rough start to life. Minnie was born with a congenital condition known as an Ocular Dermoid (abnormal tissue growth on and around the eye). This has been surgically corrected, however Dermoids may continue to grow for Minnie quite possibly for her lifetime.
Minnie had also hit a rough patch at the same time as her Dermoid treatment, and is now classified as an Epileptic. Her veterinary team managed her seizure activity with oral medications, which she has now been weaned off - We are unable to determine if this may be an ongoing condition for Minnie, and we are pleased that she has been seizure free since coming off her medications, however she may grow out of the condition.
Due to Minnie's' potential long term special needs we are searching for an extra special, committed family to adopt her knowing the potential of her congenital faults, and the potential veterinary treatments that she may require heading into the future. We do remain so positive with Minnie, and do not foresee her not being able to enjoy all of the wonderful things in life that a dog deserves!
Minnies adoption is inclusive of her desexing and microchip, 1st and 2nd vaccination, and she is up to date with her worming and flea/tick treatments.
Medical notes
An ocular dermoid is made up of typical tissue found in your dogs body, however it grows in an abnormal place. When tissue grows near your dog eyes or on your dog eyes, it can cause irritation and discomfort. This issue can be found in specific breeds in particular and is present at birth.
The ocular dermoid may present with discharge, irritation or an abnormal growth that you notice. While it may bother your dog and look odd, it does not necessarily mean there are health risks associated with it.
Dermoids of the eye, more commonly known as ocular Dermoids, are simply normal tissue in an abnormal place. In this case, tissue grows on the cornea or the conjunctiva (the white of your dog eye and eyelid.)
Idiopathic epilepsy means there is no identifiable cause for the seizure activity. inherited epilepsy means there is a genetic cause for the seizure activity. Epilepsy that is suspected to have an inherited basis often begins in puppies younger than 1 year of age.
