My story

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

Simon is a homeless, blind-in-one-eye dog who was found hiding in the flowerbed of a home near Houston. All efforts to locate an owner failed.
Simon truly is the sweetest dog we have come across in a very long time. He is young, healthy, and soo wants to please. He weighs 48 pounds, does great with other dogs and people. He's not been tested with cats. Even the vets and their staffs have remarked repeatedly about his sweet, innocent temperament and how compliant he is. This dog truly did not deserve to be abandoned nor does he deserve to die because of this impairment.
We (Baytown Humane Society) have now had Simon fully vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped. He tested Negative for heartworms, too! We have also taken him to a veterinarian ophthalmologist who diagnosed Simon with a congenital condition causing him to be totally blind in his right eye, and with limited sight in the left.
We have been astonished at how well he navigates with his limited vision. He actually runs and plays with the other dogs in the home as if he has full sight! He gets daily drops in his sighted eye, but that is the only thing different required of the owner. Simon HATES being crated: but, is truly an amazing dog who loves to play, freely gives kisses, and wants to live a happy life with a great family.
Please help us with this precious animal. I am Marilyn Kinney with Baytown Humane Society; and I can be reached at: 832.414.3729 or by email: baccr1@aol.com
