Peanut is a purebred Shih Tzu. He is a sweet, loving lap dog. He just loves everybody. He gets along well with other dogs. He is crate trained and house trained. He walks well on a leash. His date of birth is approximately March 2008.
Please Help!! Peanut was diagnosed with pseudo membranous, septic conjunctivitis, with symblepharon and is going through treatment. UPDATE: Peanut saw his doctor today and membrane has dissolved. He goes for 1 more treatment in December. What a miracle!
Most recent tragedy for Peanut. He had to have his right eye removed.
He will need drops in his eyes twice a week for the rest of his life. The drops run about $20 / month.
