SAFE!! URGENT!! IN, Brazil: Blind Bloodhound


3/15/11: "no a rescue didnt come forward and this poor guy is still at the shelter."

2/23/11: Hi My name is Stacy Trusty-Dotson. I am a volunteer at a humane shelter in Brazil, IN. We currently have a blind bloodhound. He was found in a ditch by a couple of boys after he had been attacked by another dog. At first we thought he just had entropion, took him to an eye specialist in Indianapolis and they determined that he was blind. His eyes are pretty milky and clouded over. Lord knows how long his previous owners let him go uncared for. Our intent was to have the laser surgery to correct the entropion, but with the blindness issue, the doctor suggested having his eyes removed. We have several opinions as far as "is that a good thing or not" "he is in pain", etc. We are a non-profit, no kill shelter and money is very tight. I have raised a little toward his condition but really at a loss as to which direction to go with it. I do not feel like we can do him justice or have the experience to know who would make a good parent for him. I have attached a picture. Many thanks! Stacy He is a super sweet dog that has had a rough life. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Contact: Clay County Humane Society stacyjt1@yahoo.com 812-446-5126
