Our beautiful Tootsie is a 5-6 yrs old SF in need of a special home, for Tootsie is blind. As sweet as could be, Tootsie was abandoned shortly after the Denver ban was announced - left tied to the door of a shelter, Tootsie was the first Denver dog to come to Mariah's Promise in April. As a result of two vet's exams, it appears that Tootsie's blindness is partially due to a head trauma ... Whatever was done to Tootsie did not deter her love for people - so typical of this amazing breed! Tootsie is not comfortable around other dogs, so she would need to be an only child. Teenagers only in the home and probably wouldn't do well with cats. We are working on getting donations so Tootsie can visit an opthamalogist to get an exact diagnosis of her possibly having an operation so she can have vision in at least one of her eyes and maybe give Tootsie a new outlook on life. Regardless, Tootsie is a very happy, social, sweet, loving girl who proudly shows off her stuffed animals. Only the BEST OF HOMES would deserve this treasure of a girl!!! If you can provide Tootsie a loving, responsible family, please let us know. A background check, home visit and experience with blind dogs a must!
