Crystal came to us in June with 7- 2 week old puppies. She is deaf and has had quite a rough start as she was dumped in rural Oklahoma, pregnant, and some good samaritans kept her while she gave birth to her puppies and once they were 2 weeks old, they reached out to find a rescue to take the young family in. We met them halfway and one of our incredible fosters worked through the nursing phase with her. It wasn't all that straight-forward as she has balance issues and was stepping on and laying on her babies so they needed to be separated, within the pen, so the puppies were safe. She is currently on medication to aid in her balance and walking issues so she will likely need to be on that medication for the rest of her life. The medication is approximately $10 for 2 months, so it is not expensive.
Once the puppies were weaned, we were able to work a bit more with Crystal and she is in a new foster home getting constant love and attention with another resident dog. She is the sweetest, most gentle soul and only recently her foster reported that she is actually barking periodically, she hadn't done that prior. So, she is ready to move on to a permanent home that will understand her special needs as her balance is a bit better, but she exagerates her playing due to being off-balance. She is also deaf but her foster is getting a bit of signing going to help her be her best self.
She is housetrained, chill, and so very loving. She is utd on vaccinations, chipped, and spayed. She is kennel trained but her foster just leaves the door open and she choose to go in as she pleases. She has picked up a habit of chewing on things but this sweetheart likely never had the opportunity to be a puppy so it's a matter of being proactive to give her things to chew that are ok.
One side note, Crystal was shot with either bb's or buckshot at one time in her young life. When x-rays were taken there were several bb's or buckshot still in her body. We don't know what happened to this sweet girl but we know she was a wonderful mom to her pups and is a super sweet girl to her person. Consider giving this girl her new permanent life.
