Cheyenne

Last update 07/29/2026

Cheyenne came from a rural shelter in Alabama, her owner was no longer able to care for her and she was surrendered. The shelter reached out to Corgi rescue to pull her. Cheyenne was heartworm negative, she got a leptospirosis vaccine, bloodwork, fecal test, nail trim, urinalysis, and she was prescribed heartworm preventatives. She did test positive for whipworms. She also received a microchip. The vet felt she had a prior injury to one of her back legs and suggested a joint supplement along with a fish supplement.

Cheyenne’s teeth were so bad it was decided that she should have a dental before being spayed. During the dental surgery, she had multiple skin growths removed from her face while she was under. Unfortunately, the mass removed from above Cheyenne’s eye was found to be a malignant melanoma, and another mass removed from her shoulder a cutaneous hemangiosarcoma. Due to those findings, it was determined that delaying her spay was required so she could have an aspiration of her lymph nodes and a chest x-ray to see if she has metastatic cancer. If she is clear, her spay will go ahead, if she is not, and she does have cancer, she will live out her life with palliative care in her foster home, where she is happy with a fenced yard and other dogs (who are neutered/spayed).
