My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Please contact info@blinddogrescue.com for more information about this pet.

Nicco's Information:

February 23, 2011: Nicco loves to be outside and explore. He is crate trained but loves to sleep in the big bed and sleeps at the foot of the bed on his little pad all night. He does not shed. Nicco loves to have his tummy rubbed and is a quiet little fella. He has figured out what treats are but is still puzzled with toys. He is not demanding. I would describe him as a very grateful and appreciative little boy. We have yet to identify any negative behaviors. Nicco is all around sweet- natured, loving and extremely cute :-)

Sex: Male

Breed: Pekingese / Shih Tzu mix

Age: 6 years old (approx. DOB: 9/15/06)

Level of blindness: Dry Eye

Cause of eye issues: Retinal Degeneration - SARD Type

Health issues: Nicco developed an abscess following his neuter and check up was to check abscess. Totally healed. Also checked to see if medicine was working for his dry eye. It is. We are treating a sore on his back and it is also resolving.
