Mini mini

Dedicated to Nora's tiny Chihuahua Mini mini. 

The other day this tiny dog was bitten and seriously injured by another, bigger camp dog.....well all camp dogs are bigger than Mini mini. 

Unfortunately he had very abnormal breathing patterns and a painful back leg. He wouldn't eat or drink anything and just genrally looked very scared and fragile.
Nora has love and cared for this little dog in what can only be described as a very dangerous world for him in the community so he was sent to the vet in town for treatment.

The news came back that poor Mini mini either had very serious internal injuries or even worse spinal injuries.....either way the cost for x-rays, operations and recovery would have been well over what Nora or the art centre could pay to have him restored to his original spritely self.

The only other alterative was to take his pain away in a dignified and peace way. He was put down at the vet's in Alice Springs on Thursday 16th August. RIP Mini mini.  


Jane and the ever so adorable Mini mini in the art centre...he really does look like a joey.
People love their dogs out here an so it is very sad to have to say goodbye to Mini mini.
