Enjoying the Heat

Hey there! I am having a short nap with two of my friends here at my foster home.  Marina is at my rear and Grace is at my side.  We are on this dog bed because it is right by the heat vent, and the days are getting cooler and so the heat is on some of the time!  We all love the warm breeze!

I am doing just fine!  Thanks so much for reading my blog!

Getting My Hair Brushed

         I love to get my pretty hair brushed, especially on my head and back!  This afternoon            my foster mom brushed my hair, and it felt so good!

                

Snoozing and Waiting

Guess what!  The wounds where my eyes were have healed and my hair keeps growing back in, and I am the cutest dog, with my silver/grey and white coat.  I am feeling very good and also am getting a little impatient. I don't understand why I haven't been adopted yet!  My foster mom tells everyone that I am one of the easiest foster dogs she has ever had. I don't need much - a soft bed, good food, back rubs, a little walking outside.  Most other dogs are a whole lot more trouble than I am!

So maybe you will think about doing something a little out of the ordinary, a little special. You only live once, you know!  Maybe you are a person who thinks outside of the box, as they say, and maybe you aren't worried about having a puppy that is perfect and, instead, maybe you can see the perfection that is me!  Maybe you know that all life has value and worth, even a small dog who cannot see or hear.  

So maybe you will fill out an adoption application so that I can have a forever home with you.  Maybe?  I hope so!

Sun is Setting

The sun is going down, and I am doing some last minute sniffing around before I go in for my dinner!

On the Move!

Now that I am feeling so good, I am on the move!  I love being outside now!  Look at me explore my foster home yard!  I am confident as I walk around - and who would even know I am a dog that does not hear or see?

I Look Great!

Finally, the dreaded cone is off and my wounds are almost healed.  I think I look pretty cute, and I feel so good now that my eyes are gone!  My hair will keep growing in and no one will really notice whether or not I have eyes anyway!

Napping

I am recovering well from the removal of my left eye, which happened a week ago today.  Next week I get the cone off!  Right now, the places where my eyes were are still a bit crusty but soon they will completely heal and my hair will grow and I am going to be more adorable than ever! Stay tuned for pictures!!

Here I am, relaxing with two of my friends.  In the top picture, I am taking a nap with my friend, Marina. In the bottom picture, I am resting with my friend, Grace.

Here at my foster home, there are four dogs (including me)(and including Grace and Marina) who can't see and who also can't hear much either.  Some people think that it would be too hard to have a dog like me but they don't understand how well blind and deaf dogs can do!  I am learning my way around my foster home now that both of my eyes are gone, and I sometimes gently bump into a wall or chair, but I can get to the dog beds and to the water bowl, and also to the door.  And I have just started to like to strut around outside a little bit when on my leash.  I can definitely smell when it is time to eat - my nose works just fine, and the sense of smell is the most important sense for a dog to have!  I am learning to like back rubs and sometimes will let my belly be rubbed too.  My foster mom thinks that no one paid much attention to me for most of my life, so I am just getting used to having attention from people.  Of course I can't tell her about what happened in my past, in Florida, before I came to my BDRA foster home but, if I could, I would tell her that my life is 100% better now than ever before, and I am just waiting for the right person, a very special person, to see that I am a little dog worthy of some great big love and a wonderful forever home.

And, til that right person comes along, I will be hanging out here at my foster home!
