Katie - In Foster Care, New England



Name: Katie
Sex: Female (spay not verified)
Breed: Blue Heeler
Age: 6 years
Location: Virginia

Vet Info: Katie is blind and deaf.  They believe her blindness is caused by cataracts.  Katie weighs 45 pounds.  Vetting information will be updated shortly.

Owner Info: Katie is a very sweet and loving girl who was found abandoned on a mountain road. The people who found her could not keep her and surrendered her to her current rescue. They believe the odds of her finding a furever home in that area who not only know how to care for a blind and deaf dog, but want to, are very slim.  They feel she needs a better chance at a furever home than they can give her.  Katie is an indoor dog with run of the house, she is housebroken and leash trained, and good with other dogs.  Katie is not possessive of toys, treats, or food, and has never shown any aggression.  Besides the back leg (right) that doesn't bend and the fact that she is also deaf, they say that she seems to be quite healthy.  They note that "Katie is deaf and blind as well as having a crippled rear leg but she is so sweet and she deserves more than we can give her here!"
