KayC was an American Eskimo Spitz (Eskie) that was kept in a pet carrier every day when her owner went to work. Even though she out grew the carrier her owner still put her in there. She lived in an apartment and said "I couldn't let her run around all day and disturb the neighbors". KayC was severely undernourished, walked in a "crouched position" from trying to stand in the carrier. When rescued she had to be fostered for almost 3 months in an attempt to "fatten her up". When I adopted her my Vet said she was fully grown but still needed to gain about 10 or more pounds. We loved her to the moon and back and her loss still brings me to tears.
