Savannah

 

Urgent: 12/2/11

Breed: Jack Russell

Age/Sex:   6yrs/Female

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....
