Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Name: Clifford
Age: 2 years old
Disability: Cliff is blind in both eyes, but his left eye needed to be due to discomfort and infection. Clifford, was used as target practice, bb's lodged in his eyes and ears. Most likely blinded by bb's.
Breed/Weight: Retriever Mix, 65 pounds
History: Clifford is a stray taken to a very rural Tennessee shelter.
When I saw Clifford at the shelter, I immediately emailed the shelter to see if any other local groups had responded, they said no only us. I checked a week later only to find out he was still there, looking so defeated, spirit gone, done with life. I knew we need to take this dog. When our volunteers, met the transport, they too, noticed he seemed beaten down with life, one of the saddest dogs they had ever seen. He got into our car, like ok what is going to happen next in my life, little did he know he was going to PWD, and he would soon believe life could be good.
After be here for just a few short weeks, WOW now meet our new and improved Clifford, "our bid red dog" with a little good nutrition, vetting and the comforts of home, his real personality has started to blossom. He loves life, people, and enjoys the company of other dogs. I think the kindness of the rescue is all new to him and we think he is really digging it!
Cliff is a very loyal pup, a big love, I like to get my Clifford hug every day. He will be a very dedicated family member.
