Back to square
one! We were all set to build a doggie ramp but then the owner decided that Savannah, a 6
yr. old deaf dog who has only gone blind in the last 4 months, needs to go to a new home because they really cannot afford
to keep her. What made them realize this was that she
started itching a lot in her rump area and is biting the hair off. I told them to put her on that grain
free dog food they have at Costco that is 35 lbs. for $35. It sounds like a grain allergy. I do think, though, that if a rash can get
these folks to say that they cannot keep her, then she has to go to a better situation. She is only
about 15 pounds and is friendly, housebroken, and gets along with other dogs.
She lives with another small dog, Peyton. Savannah lives in Richmond, Va. I am hoping to
find a rescue that will take Savannah. Please crosspost.
Below is what the owner originally posted on Craigslist. There are
also some pics of her, below and attached. Good day...I have a Jack Russell that has gone
blind...she was born deaf and we saved her from destruction because she was the pick
of the litter. Because she was deaf the breeder
was gonna have her put down....now that she has gone
blind she can no longer go down
the back deck steps to use the rest room....if I was healthy, I could take her down the
steps to do that but I am in a tough cancer fight and I do not have the strength to do
that as I can hardly do it for myself...is there an organization out there that would take her and NOT put her down? She really
is a sweetheart and finds her food and water
with no problem, she even finds the doggie door to the back deck, she just doesn't
go down the steps so she does her business on the back deck....I really want to find her a good home as she deserves more than I
can give her.... |
