NJ, Clifton "Sampson" Blind Cocker

THIS POOR SWEET BLIND BOY WAS LEFT AT A SHELTER TO DIE BECAUSE THE OWNER'S NEW HUSBAND SAID SAMPSON MUST GO!! HE IS IN URGENT NEED OF FOSTER OR ADOPTER! PLEASE SHARE!
The first good turn of events for this boy was being dumped in a shelter by a woman who recently got married and her new husband didnt want Sampson but we did. Sampson came from a kill shelter in Charleston, SC and wasnt even given the chance to be noticed. The shelter felt he was unadoptable because of his blindness from cataracts and some hearing loss. The second change of luck came when he was saved by our group and his joy of life shows in the pictures. He wants to be near you all the time and would make a great companion for someone who will love him back. He is 8 years old, neutered, good with people and other dogs and appears to be housetrained. Sampson will need a special person in his life to give him what he has been missing for 8 years and you will be rewarded beyond belief.

SAFE!!URGENT!! KY, Falmouth "Ace" Blind Senior Lab X

Meet ACE - Big, Black and Beautiful fellow! Semi-Senior (8 yrs young). Two pictures are attached.

He and his brother Sampson age 13 (blind & starving) were surrendered to the Pendleton County (KY) pound by their elderly owner. Ace faired a little better than his brother food wise so he is in a little better shape. The man kept them outdoors their entire lives with big heavy chains around their necks with a padlock! Fortunately, Sampson has a rescue, but Ace is waiting in hopes someone or group out there will take him and make his life a joy. Could you be that rescue or person?


He doesn't have much of a chance at rescue being big and black. We do not know how long the pound will keep Ace. Euthing starts when the pound is full. One of the volunteers had Ace out of the kennel Monday, 2/27. He warmed right up and wanted to curl up on her lap. Look at that face, such a sweet boy.


NO OTHER INFO IS KNOWN ABOUT THIS SWEET BOY.

ACE’S LOCATION: He is currently at the Pendleton County Animal Shelter in Falmouth, Ky.

 Hi, my name is Mr. McGoo. Do you know why? Because I am blind. My eyes are glazed over and it looks like I have cataracts. But, you know what? That doesn't stop me from loving life! I'm an older boy, probably around 10 or so, and I'm very sweet and loving. I'm kinda small, around 30 pounds or so. My tail just wags and wags. Since I was a stray, the shelter needs to hold me until 2-23-12, but after that time, I'll be available for adoption. I'd do best in a home without small children to run up and scare me. I'd be a great dog for a senior citizen; especially one that doesn't rearrange their furniture very often. Once I get the "lay of the land" in your home, you won't even know that I can't see. Dogs trust their sight the least of all their senses, so missing my sight isn't really that much of a handicap. My nose and ears take over!! Do you have room in your heart and home for...

Hey there! My name is Emily and I'm looking for a very special home because I am a very special dog. See, I can't see but just because I'm blind doesn't mean that I can't love with all my heart. I've been here at the shelter for a bit now - I was lucky enough to get into foster care for a bit but unfortunately couldn't stay. It sure was nice in a home and I would love to get back in one. See once I get used to my surroundings, I get around really well! Since I can't see, I really need someone patient who will help me get around and take things slowly. It probably would be best to live in a house without small kids right now - just because I can't see not because I don't like them! I'm just a friendly gal who loves treats and taking walks (I'm really good on the leash!).
I'm just looking for my happily ever after - is that with you?

PTS DATE 3/1 AM!! TX, Mt. Pleasant 1 Blind Heeler/One with 1 Eye *No pic*

There were no pics attached to this message I received but these two poor boys are in desperate need....they only have until Thursday to find rescue then they will be put to sleep....no special needs to the adoption floor......not to be given a chance just stinks in my book!! I am trying to get pictures but wanted to get these two boys information out there to everyone just in case someone can help save their lives....




UPDATE: Poor blind boy had to be PTS due to injuries, but the 1 eyed Heeler is still much in need of rescue!!!
I volunteer at a city animal shelter in Mt Pleasant, TX (east of Dallas). I am trying to find rescue fro 2 male dogs we got in today. Both are heeler mixes. One is completely blind & the other only has 1 eye. Sweet boys & seem healthy, other than being blind. It is highly unlikely they will get adopted here, which means they will be put down as soon as their 3 day hold time is up (Thursday). If your rescue can help, or if you know of another rescue, please let me know. I hate to see these guys go down just because they can no longer see.

Thanks for any help.

SAFE!! XXX URGENT!! AL, Sylacauga "Lucy" Blind Boxer/PBT X Puppy

This cutie is Lucy!! Please read more about her below.... Lucy is now with Wendy to get her out of the frightening shelter, but Lucy still needs rescue! No one has been interested yet....


My name is Wendy and I am an Animal Rescue Foundation board member in Sylacauga, AL. I am on the adoption team and help with temporary fostering. I am a certified dog trainer but I only use my training to help the shelter dogs. We currently have a 5 month old puppy that appears to be a bull terrier or pit mix, her name is Lucy. She is so sweet and very smart but she is blind. She can see just a little bit up close. Her eyes are crossed. I have her at my home right now and I am trying to increase her self confidence and help her focus a bit on items up close. I think she could be a great therapy dog if trained properly. Our shelter is small and we stay over runned with dogs so unfortunatley we have to put down dogs often. She would be on that list due to her disability but I offered to bring her home and work with her. I don't want to see her put down. She is a great dog! I have 5 dogs of my own and I am unable to keep her. I have tried to find her a home but noone is interested.

Yes, please network her. She still belongs to the shelter. I just wanted to get her out of that environment and see how her personality is. She is great! So sweet and very smart, so willing to learn and obey. I have had her at my home since Friday to work with her. Being blind does not hold her back.

SAFE!! XXX URGENT!! OH, Ravenna "Justin" Limited Sight/Hearing Senior GSD **Malnourished**

**WEEPING WILLOW RESCUED**
Justin is in urgent need of a home or shelter. He is currently safe with me, however I am not able to keep him long-term because my border collie is being aggressive towards him and he is not a good mix with my senior cats. I am going to have to return him to the county kill shelter where he will be euthanized unless someone steps in to help. If you are able to assist pm me for contact information.

Justin- URGENT-home or rescue needed


This is Justin. He is a senior male with limited vision and is at least partially deaf. He has suffered extreme neglect and abuse. All we know of his life is that he was tied outside to a porch with no access to food or water. When he was rescued last weekend he was near death- extremely emaciated and dehydrated. He h...as begun his long journey to recovery as a foster with me but desperately needs a home where he can receive more individualized attention in a calm environment. Please share with all. After everything he has been through he is still sweet as pie, affectionate and grateful for the simple comforts we take for granted. He is fine around other dogs, would do best in a cat-free home

XXX URGENT!! MD, Cumberland "Bear" Senior Deaf Chow/Retriever X

Bears pics. 8 or 9 yrs. no idea on history. Think he was owner surrender bc of moving. He is a loving boy and was sweet when he first came to the shelter but then was attacked and almost killed by another dog. Now he is quick to nip at anyone if they don't make themselves known to him bc he is scared. He may be ok with other dogs eventually if he is introduced slowly and they are not aggressive with him. But can't guarantee it bc of the attack. When he sees anyone he is wagging his tail and just wants you to pet him. I think he is adorable.

XXX URGENT!! GA, Atlanta "Aura" Deaf Bulldog

Hi! My name is Aura and I am a 3 year old female Bulldog mix. I am about 57 lbs and I won't get any bigger. I am housetrained and up to date on all of my shots. Unfortunately, I am heartworm positive. Heartworms can be treated and should not deter you from adopting me! The shelter will treat my heartworms at no extra cost to you. I also have chronic ear infections which has made me somewhat DEAF. I know I have a lot of odds stacked against me but I'm a really great gal! I am great with other dogs and I love every person that I've ever met. I should not be in a home with cats because I am a little too curious about them. Please come visit me! Just because I am not perfect, does not mean I don't deserve a home!
I am a spayed female, white American Bull Terrier.
The shelter thinks I am about 3 years old.

I have been at the shelter since Feb 02, 2012

XXX URGENT!! TX, Houston Blind in 1 eye PBT X **Dumped without babies**

Houston, TX area: ABUSED LITTLE GIRL - NEED FOSTER, RESCUE GROUP OR ADOPTER ASAP...! SHE HAS NO WHERE TO GO..........
This little girl was walking down the middle of the road, near W. Bellfort and BW8. She is being boarded at our vet’s, and is nearing full recovery from parasites, anemia and demodex. She has put on weight, now up to 37 lbs. She is blind in her right eye. Thankfully she is HW negative. We checked for microchip, none. Best guess is she is 2 yrs. old. She has had pups, but we have not been able to find them. She may have been dumped without them. She has received all her vaccines and she will be ready to be neutered in about 6 weeks. I can possibly swing boarding fees for another week, but her vetting and boarding is taking it's toll. But I am committed to covering her vet care, including her neuter when the time comes. Right now she needs to be in a home environment, so she does not have to remain in a kennel at the vet’s. She loves being loved on, wants to meet everyone and every dog who comes into the vet's office. And Oh the kisses she gives! She is a love bug!

Labrador Retriever Mix: An adoptable dog in Fort Walton Beach, FL

Large • Adult • Male

I am a beautiful male black Lab mix who was turned in to the shelter because my owner couldn't afford to take care of me anymore. I came to PAWS with my companion female dog, Chewy, who is my seeing-eye dog. I'M BLIND. I must be able to stay with Che and be adopted with her since I don't know how to get along on my own.I'm a sweet boy with a wonderful temperament and I'm only 36 pounds so I wouldn't be too big for most homes. I'm neutered and ready to go home with you if you would choose to help me . I'm very disoriented and frightened here in this run and would like to go to a forever home where my friend and I would be safe and loved. Please visit with me and see how easy it would be for you to give a handicapped dog a happy home.
