Ester is adopted!

Remember Ester, the chihuahua from a puppymill, who was rescued last June? She came into rescue and we knew something was seriously wrong with her. When Dr. Anna did her spay surgery, she saw exactly what was wrong. Ester had a bloated up kidney that needed to be removed as soon as possible. One week later Dr. Bill Ouverson removed the kidney and Ester felt so much better. We were devastated when the lab report came in and it said that the kidney contained cancer. We took Ester to the vet 6 months following her kidney removal for an xray and were thrilled that there was no visible cancer. We took Ester to the vet last Friday for another xray. The xray showed no cancer so Ester is cancer free!

She left on Saturday for her new forever home. She will join her new mom and Cuddles, another Almost Home alumni, in Minnesota. Ester is enjoying her new adoptive mom, Cuddles, a soft dog bed and poached eggs!
