Twinkle Toes is so handicapped but never is anything but happy and loving. She is most likely a teenager, and looks like a tiny white beagle. She is blind , deaf, and has deformed feet. However she can get around my house without a problem and if she wishes to will go down the doggie ramp into the dog yard. She loves to be petted or snuggle up next to one of her doggie friends. She sleeps most of the time now but comes wide awake when it is time to eat. I always crate the rescue dogs to feed them and she will inhale her food and serenade me with pitiful beagle howls until she is let loose and then does her job of licking all the other dogs bowls clean. I just adore her and so does anyone who has met her. She will usually wander into the living room when anyone comes to look at an adoptable dog. If I go out to the store she is always right by the front door to greet me when I return. She is truly amazing I think.
Maggie is a precious ancient Poodle mix who came from another rescue. She is mostly blind and deaf, but gets around just fine. Maggie had a malignant tumor removed before coming here, but we have not received her vet records yet, so we are unsure of her status. She is very independent, does not wish to be a "shut in" and will look for an out of the way place to to take her naps. When she first arrived she would hide which made it fun to find her and since she is deaf she can't hear me calling her. Maggie is comfortable here and will not be available for adoption.
 Misty is not for adoption but could really use a sponsor. She is
sixteen years old and spent her life chained to a dog house in her
owners back yard. The tips of her ears have been eaten of by flies she
is skin and bones. Her owner became ill and obviously she hasn't been
fed lately. A neighbor did start taking food to her and got her owner
to turn her over to a kind rescue person who brought her to me. Misty
has been at my vets last week getting fluids, antibiotics to help a
severe urinary infection and meds for her arthritis. Her kidneys are
not great but the rest of her blood work was not bad. I would just like
her to have whatever time is left for her to know what it is like to be
loved , warm, dry and any amount of whatever food she will eat. When
she has no quality of life she will humanly pts. She loves to go down
to my barn with me and follows me around the house sleeping most of the
day.
UPDATE:
Misty is eating and moving around better and seems to be enjoying
living life relieved of her chain. She is a sweet loving dog and I just
hope she will continue to go on as she is now for a few more months at
least.
More update
Misty has finally gained a little weight and is getting around much
better. I just added a more recent photo
She loves to get attention and to go on slow walks. She is a wonderful
dog.
