Hi there. My name is Weenie! My family took me to a DFW area kill shelter because I was going blind and they didn't want me any more. But my saviors at ATDR came to my rescue!
I might be blind, but that doesn't stop me from acting like a dog and a dang cute one too, or so everyone says. My foster Mom says she forgets I'm blind sometimes because once I got the lay of the land it didn't stop me from getting around. After a couple of days, she gave me free rein of the house & as long as stuff stays in the same place I don't stumble or anything. I do walk slow to make sure I don't bump into anything and my hearing is wonderful, I hardly ever bark. Mommy says I'm very sweet and like every body. I do like being with my foster Mom and am a little clingy. I know my name and come whenever anyone calls me. Mommy's dachsie and I became buddies right away and she looks after me, so I would love to have another doggie to live with. I love to be outside, but my most favorite place is in Mommy's lap. I love to sleep cuddled up with her, but I'm also fine sleeping by myself at night in a dog bed and love to play with squeakie toys. If you're looking for a loyal and fun loving companion please drop me a line. I'd love to hear from you.
xoxo, Weenie
