4/6/13: I have a home and going to Maryland to live with Maureen and Mike. They loved me the minute they saw my picture and no doubt I was the one for them. They understand I have just recently lost my sight and now learning to trust humans to help me find my way. They also have other dogs that I can follow around and learn which way to go. Thanks to everyone that help me find these folks that have opened their hearts to this blind boy. Christian
3/16/13: Checking in to let you know how things are going here with me. I am adjusting to being blind and as you can imagine it is a challenge. People say I have beautiful eyes but I only know they are eyes that can no longer see. However us dogs don’t let things like this end life for us and we learn to rely on our other senses. Now I would not do well in a home with a lot of steps but I do fine with the three going off the deck here. I do like my crate in the house and can find my way to it with no problems. I’m a quiet kind of guy and not much of a barker. At two years old and forty pounds I am full grown and a small collie. My coat is comming back in and I’m all fuzzy. I hope someone will open their heart and give this wonderful guy a home. Chris
1/29/13: Went to the eye doctor today and my retinas are detached. Can’t see a thing but my other senses will take over and help me find my way. Next week I am going to the vet for my heartworm treatment and then I can find a forever home. Doing well here and have learned the steps going down to the yard and where the door is to get back in. The most important thing is my tail has started to wag.
1/13/13: My new name is Christian and I am a young fellow at 2 years old. I am about the sweetest fellow you will ever meet being very quiet and gentle. When I went to the animal shelter my coat was so matted they had to shave it off. I have beautiful blue eyes although they cannot see because I am blind. It that isn’t enough I have a hernia that will need to be repaired where mom cut the cord to short and a light case of heartworms that will need to be treated. I’m doing pretty well here at the rescue and once I learn where everything is you would never know I can’t see. Miss Jean says there is someone out there for each and every one of us and that my person will come. Thank you, rescue folks for saving my life and pulling me from the animal shelter.
