My story

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

Foster to Adopt!

Stevie came to us after his human mom passed away and his remaining family could no longer care for him like he deserved. It was decided after his mom passed away that the damage to his eyes caused by glaucoma was very painful and that Stevie would live a better life without his eyes since he had already lost his sight. Because of his loss of sight, Stevie needs a very slow introduction to new people and places. Once Stevie has time to adjust, Stevie will come to you for affection, can be playful, and loves to just hang out with you. Stevie is smart and loves for you to tell him everything that is about to happen since he can no longer see.

Never worked with a blind dog? We have that covered! One of our behavioral team is a ready to work with you and Stevie so that you can thrive together.

Are you looking for a dog to hang out with you at home? Are you willing to be Stevie’s eyes? You both will be forever grateful for each other. Stevie has a low energy level and is a sweetheart. He gets along with calm dogs and ignores cats. He does best with older kids who won’t startle him.
