Cong - Staying With Owner

Name: Cong (pronounced Kong)

Age: 8 ½ years

Sex: Male (altered)

Breed: Chinese Shar Pei

Location: Montgomery County, PA

Vet Info: Cong is neutered and UTD with all vaccines.  He has not had a recent heartworm test.  Cong weighs about 69 pounds.  Cong's owners tell us he was diagnosed with retinal degeneration about two years ago and is completely blind.  Cong has become overweight since becoming blind.

Owner Info: DOB 12/26/07. Cong is a very handsome Shar Pei whose owner and spouse now work all day.  His owner also has a health issue that he's dealing with, and they realize they are unable to care for Cong as he should be cared for.  They have not yet had any luck in finding him a new home and are hoping we have a place for him.  They have had Cong since he was a puppy.

Cong is an indoor dog with run of the house.  He is housebroken and leash trained.  Cong is a smart fellow and knows the commands Sit, Stay, Lay, and High Five!  

Cong is good with men, women, and cats, and currently lives with a senior cat.  We asked his owners how Cong was with other dogs, and they wrote, "He was friendly with dogs but once he became blind we did our best to keep him away with other dogs."

Cong is not possessive of toys, treats, or food and has never bitten or snapped.  

His owners want us to know what a sweet boy he is!
