Story
🐾 Meet Bishop – The Wonder Pup🐾
This little sweetheart is Bishop! He’s a young (born March 2024) smaller sized terrier mix that is one of the special ones. Bishop is a neurological puppy, before you stop reading, don’t let that scare you. He lives in a foster home with other dogs, cats, and loves people and most importantly, he’s healthy and happy.
Bishop came to us from the priority list at a local shelter. He was emaciated, blind, and had some skin issues but after a little TLC and a vet visit, he’s basically a normal pup! He can see up close, differentiate between shade and sunlight, and recognize large objects, allowing him to follow along. Don’t worry, Bishop gets into the usual puppy mischief—bumps and all! Once he maps out a room or yard, he’s unstoppable and loves a good zoomie or chase. :D His eyes are healthy and the vet thinks his vision could improve as he gets older.
Bishop is already learning commands and he’s doing well with house training and leash walking. He’ll need a patient family, preferably one experienced with special needs or willing to work with a trainer, and a home with no or minimal stairs.
If this quirky happy boy, might be the one for you, please reach out by completing a form at the link below. We'll forward that to his foster family who will reach out to you directly to answer any questions.
