Chewbarka is a 6-year-old, 9.4-pound male Shih Tzu who recently came into our care along with Miss Bee Haven and Butter Moon. Sadly, their elderly owner could no longer care for them. These sweet pups were clearly loved, and they're now getting cleaned up and checked by the vet. Chewbarka, along with Butter Moon, has some issues with his rear left leg, where he's not bearing weight. It looks like there are growths on his stifle joint, and Chewbarka's seems to have ruptured and scabbed over. Our vet will be taking a close look to figure out what's going on and the best course of action. Stay tuned for updates on this handsome boy!
