My story

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

‼🐾 NERO NEEDS A SPECIAL PERSON FOR HIM 🐾‼

Here is a boy in desperate need. His name is Nero. We pulled him from a kill shelter as a medical and behavioral case. he had ruptured corneas and horribly infected yes that we had no other choice but to remove his eyes. Nero is totally blind and he is a grumpy guy. He does not really like to be picked up but we believe he could really get there with someone who has patience and is okay with maybe just co/existing with a dog. Nero gets used to a routine and he follows you around. He likes snacks and is now even getting used to being loved on. He will tell you when he had enough though. He is so happy to just go and explore the yard. He does well with female dogs, Best would be his size. Nero is maybe 4 to 5 years old, 14 lbs and a black Shih Tzu.
We would love for someone to open their heart to a guy like him.
He still has so much potential and had a really rough life before he came to us. So forgive him to be this grumpy guy who can be nippy too. He has to learn to trust and it is a bit harder for blind dogs obviously.

He needs a low traffic home with no small children. Teenagers would be fine.
