Bjorn the Conqueror has his own Facebook Page :)
Please read Bjorn's AMAZING RECOVERY!!! He was so autistic when he came into our program- YAY IBR.
Booger is our newest Pointer rescue- he is not part Vizsla but he is super fun like one. He is partially deaf but showing that he is trainable. We need a very thoughtful experienced treat and training motivated foster home for him to help him be the best dog he can be. As we have linked deafness in our birddog population to Rocky Mountain spotted fever infections and Lyme disease- he is being treated for that and doing well. We have also had to change his diet as he was having some gutt issues upon arrival. Booger was found running loose in Romeoville, IL and his owner could not be found from his microchip. That was surgically removed by the Romeoville Human Society and he then he was transferred into IBR's program. Here are some of his first photos in his Facebook album #1 and then from a recent trip to the dog park in
Facebook album #2 . This pup has so much potential and in he right hands- he is going to be Brilliant!!
