Blind dogs see with their heart....
Maggie did have a rescue but it fell through and now she has no where to go and only a few days to find a rescue or a new home. She MUST be out by August 31st!! Maggie has become accustomed to her blindness and gets around well. Blindness is not the tragedy for dogs that it is for humans. She will just need some orientation to her new home, some assistance getting in and out to potty until she learns the route and some understanding since she has to live in a new place and it will be strange to her. The Blind Dogs Group at Yahoo is very supportive and can help with questions and problems. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/blinddogs

I need to place my Maggie by Friday August 31st. We thought had found a home, but it fell through.
Maggie is a loving dog and she gets around even though she is blind. She was diagnosed a few years ago, and there was nothing to do for her blindness. She is blind from PRA Progressive Retinal Atrophy, a painless gradual blindness that is untreatable. There will be no expensive eye vet charges -- she isn't in pain and needs no special care. http://www.animaleyecare.net/diseases/pra.htm
Birthdate 1/26/98 9 years old
She is up to date on her shots and spayed
She is housebroken
She is blind
She weights about 13 lbs.
She is a black and white mixed Poodle/Chihuahua (Shih tzu more likely)
She gets along with other dogs and cats
I hope you can help me with her placement.
Sincerely
Bill Athan
