Story
Meet Ramona! This beautiful girl is a one-eyed wonder and backyard sun goddess.
Sweet Ramona has been through it, and she’s come out the other side with grace, charm, and a strong opinion about sunbathing schedules.
Her former family brought her to the vet for an injured toe, but when they didn’t want to continue her care they opted for euthanasia instead. Thankfully, the vet knew this gentle, quiet dog deserved a second chance and called us. Since then, Ramona’s had toe amputation and an eye removal (her eye was completely diseased and painful), and she’s now resting comfortably in her foster home’s yard, soaking up sunshine like it’s her full-time job.
Ramona is deeply loyal, incredibly sweet, and happiest when following her people from room to room like a fuzzy little assistant. She's not much for cardio but will happily patrol the yard to find the best spots for rolling in the grass and the optimal tanning angle.
Ramona is hoping for a forever family that is calm, quiet, and has humans who are home often. She really just loves being around people and keeping them company. She’s lived with cats, is good on the leash, and the perfect copilot in the car. She’s also housebroken, crate trained, trustworthy when left home alone, and ridiculously adorable.
Ramona is being treated for Cushing's, which is a common condition in senior dogs caused by the production of excess cortisol (a stress hormone). It’s typically easily managed with daily medication and routine vet care, and Cushing's dogs live happy, comfortable lives when their condition is well-controlled.
Ramona would prefer a home without young children but is happy to share it with other dogs as long as she doesn't need to play with them - that would cut into her sunbathing time!
Ramona is done with the hard part. Now she’s ready for forever: slow walks, sunshine naps, and someone who talks to her like she’s part of the conversation (because she is). Could you give this sweet girl the soft landing and sunshine she so deserves?
Ramona is approximately 11 years old and 20 lbs.
Fostered in Bethesda, MD
