About Pantaloon

Meet Pantaloon, a gentle 3-year-old female Chihuahua, currently recovering and receiving special care. She came from the Ouachita Parish Animal Shelter after being found emaciated and with various health concerns. Pantaloon is on a special diet to help her regain strength, along with some tasty boiled chicken. Her condition requires further evaluation at the vet, which is planned for early November. This brave little girl may need time to heal before being spayed or undergoing other necessary procedures. Pantaloon seems to have a sweet disposition; she gets along with both cats and dogs. To ensure she receives the care she needs, she will be staying in a foster home where she can be closely monitored.
