About Milly

Sweet Milly is a lovely 8.5-year-old female Yorkshire Terrier, weighing around 10 lbs. Sadly, her previous owner passed away, and a friend reached out to us for help. Milly is known for her gentle and affectionate nature. She has been diagnosed with Cushing's disease and also has a hernia that requires surgical intervention. During a recent visit to Tufts, it was found that she needs dental work and is being treated for an infection. Additionally, she has multiple bladder stones that need to be surgically removed to prevent further complications. Milly is currently at Tufts, and we’re all hoping for her swift recovery. Please keep her in your thoughts during this challenging time and consider supporting her extensive medical needs. If you're interested in adopting this sweet girl once she's ready, please fill out an application. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
