My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This dog's fosterhome is located in: ****Arkadelphia, Arkansas**** Dobby is only 7 months old and weighs a little less than 7 pounds.  He is a type B rat terrier, with shorter legs.  According to the shelter, Dobby was kicked in the head, which badly damaged his right eye.  The wonderful shelter staff rushed him to a local vet, who removed the eye and took care of him until ResQ could be contacted.  Despite the abuse in his past, Dobby loves everyone.  He has a happy spirit, and is very affectionate.  He snuggles into your lap like he is soaking up kindness, and follows his foster mom around everywhere she goes.  Dobby doesn’t much like a crate, and he would rather snuggle into bed with you.  (He doesn’t take up much room, after all)  He is doing wonderfully with his house training, and is very smart!  There is no evidence that he was emotionally damaged by the abuse, and to prove it, his tail never stops wagging.  Dobby loves to smother you with kisses, if you will sit still long enough.  Our vets tell us that his surgery area will look much better in a few weeks, and he has absolutely no handicap from losing the eye.  His depth perception is fine, and he sprints up stairs like a big dog.  Losing an eye has not slowed this amazing pup down one bit.  For photos of Dobby in his foster home, check his album often for updates: http://ImageEvent.com/coram/dobby
