CAPPY IN KENTUCKY 16 SEPTEMBER 2010
On 14 September, Lydia of Goshen Animal Clinic in Prospect, Kentucky writes: Scrappy is an abandoned seven-year-old Cairn Terrier that desperately needs a home. He came to our clinic after a concerned neighbor saw his condition. Scrappy is missing most of his hair. He has a severe yeast/bacterial infection on his skin due to an allergy of some sort (this condition is NON-CONTAGIOUS to both humans & other animals). He is listed as special needs because Scrappy will need to be on chronic medications for at least four to six months. We have started him on medications for his skin and he already has peach fuzz growing in!
His zest for life has inspired us at Goshen Animal Clinic to find this special little guy a home. He has a happy-go-lucky personality and keeps his kennel very clean. He is un-neutered.

Peggy Nalley continues: He came in with the name Scrappy; we have so many of them, I changed his named to Cappy. It works; he comes when called. He is pitiful looking, I must say, but he is a happy little fellow. He has come in and made himself right at home. And he is housebroken . . . thank God!!!! I keep telling him he is a "Chinese Crested wannabe". He just wags his hairless little tail as if to say, "Yep, and I'm pulling it off pretty well, huh!" His little face & head remind me so much of Saylor, it is not funny! Has his temperament too.
