My story

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

Kimmy is being fostered in PA.

Update:
8/25/24
Kimmy has had her double cherry eye surgery, was spayed and recovered extremely well. She is on cyclosporine drops for a few more weeks and then she should not need any eye drops.
She does have a luxating patella (kneecap that is a bit loose) that her foster mom wouldn’t have even noticed if the vet didn’t find it upon examination. No treatment is necessary at this time. She also has a cute habit of placing her tip toes of her one back foot on the floor when standing and /or eating. She has scar tissue on her one toe from an older injury so she may have gotten in the habit of favoring that foot when she was a stray. There is no sign of injury or discomfort at other times and it does not limit her at all.
Her playful mouthiness is almost completely non existent unless she is extremely excited but she is very easily redirected with a chew toy.
Kimmy continues to charm everyone she meets and even those who observe her from a distance. Her foster mom and othe

Go meet their pets

Can I meet the dog before I submit an application?
All of our dogs are cared for in private foster homes. We cannot make arrangements for private meet and greets until an application is received and references have been checked. That being said, many of our dogs are at local public events where you can certainly go to meet them.

Will you transport the dog to me? What if I live in Canada?
Generally yes, as long as you do not live more than 18 hours from a dog’s foster home. If you are unsure, please email adoption@blinddogrescue.org
