Minnie passed away unexpectedly and far too soon, even at the age of 13. On Septemthe world lost a very special Jindo. If you would like to foster or adopt May, please email Legacy of Minnie, Jindo Founder of Treasured k9s She would love to have a forever home of her own.

We cannot take in any dogs because we must make certain we have funds to care for May if she ends up back in the hospital. We are officially in a holding pattern until May is adopted. Treasured k9s incurred close to $6,000 for just that hospital stay and her supportive medication runs $200 per month. The vet saw all of her airways collapse and he then was able to diagnose her with Bronchomalacia, which is incurable. Finally, her specialist performed another scope and May happened to cough during the procedure. May spent 2 weeks on oxygen puzzling the veterinarians. Every parasite test was run to rule out every possibility. After two sets of inconclusive x-ray, we proceeded with extensive diagnostics including a scope to rule out tumor/bleeding, ultrasound to see the lung more clearly, and tracheal wash. She was in serious condition with labored breathing and not eating.

May, was hospitalized the afternoon of July 4 at a 24-Hour emergency vet. Little did we know that she would turn out to be a special needs case with a rare lung condition. Treasured k9s stepped in and agreed to take May in. Unfortunately, the adopter did not show up and the rescue group did not have connections or a back up plan. May is a Korean meat market survivor who was rescued by another group and flown to JFK where she was supposed to be picked up by her adopter.
