Story
When it comes to a ‘special needs’ dog, there should be emphasis on the word ‘special’ – there is nothing more special than a dog like Dean!
A 1.5 yr old Miniature Pinscher-mix, Dean was most likely born without eyesight.He is completely blind and was originally found on the side of a busy road by a Good Samaritan who luckily was able to save him before he got into the busy street or highway nearby! Despite his disability, nothing stops Dean from enjoying life to the fullest! He has a joyful spirit and doesn’t let what he doesn’t have bring him down.
Due to his lack of eyesight, Dean works hard to learn his new environment. He’s a very smart boy, who adapts quickly, but he can get frightened by new sounds, especially loud ones like sirens. As a result, a quiet, low-key home is preferred for him. Dean would thrive in a home without children (young or older) or cats. The extra noises of children do make him uncomfortable, and he doesn’t quite understand why cats won’t play with him!
He would greatly appreciate a home with a consistent routine that will give him ample time to get comfortable around any new visitors. Once he feels safe, he is the biggest love bug and wants to play! Dean takes comfort in the safety of his crate, which will be a great tool for his future family to continue using in order to provide him a safe, quiet place in his new home.
Dean is potty trained at his current location and in a new unfamiliar environment, he will need to learn the routine of being let outside. He greatly would prefer being let outside in a private backyard over being put on a leash to go potty. He would love another dog friend to play with and help lead the way. Dean enjoys playing with toys and chewing on marrow bones, and if you can’t find him, he has most likely burrowed himself underneath blankets!
This boy just wants to be loved and feel safe, and we know the perfect home is out there for him. He will bring so much joy to his perfect forever home! Dean’s adoption fee includes his completed veterinary exams, vaccinations, microchip and neuter. He’ll melt your heart at first sight. To meet Dean, please visit: https://lovethemallrescue.org/dean
