Information:
3/3/14: Earnest came to BDRA from a hoarding situation. He was living with 10 other dogs and an elderly woman in a trailer. His owner could no longer care for him and a rescue stepped in when the dogs were taken to the local shelter.
Earnest is on the thin side for his build but we are working on putting some weight on him. He should weigh about 15 pounds or so. He is fully housetrained and will walk on a leash.
He is a very sweet little man who loves to sit next to you. He is very quiet and reserved. It takes him a little bit to warm up to new people but when he does, you have yourself a new little buddy. Earnest does not like to be without his people and will protest slightly when being left home alone.
If you are interested in adopting Earnest, please fill out our
adoption application.
The Board of Directors has voted to prohibit the use of Invisible/Electronic fences on Blind Dog Rescue Alliance dogs. This policy will be effective immediately.
