Hello, big world! This is Azim. Azim (ʿAẓīm), meaning "Great" or "Magnificent" or "Protector". Some of you have followed Azim's journey to recovery, but for those of you who haven't, let me explain. This handsome boy that you see today, didn't start out that way. When he was found, he was 40lbs. He was skin and bones, and so dehydrated that his organs were shutting down. His eyes were sunken in, and he was no longer able to stand. He was dying a slow and miserable death due to severe neglect. On top of that, he was heavily heartworm positive. No animal deserves that.. Thanks to the incredible staff at a local veterinary clinic, and the love and hard work of his new family and friends, Azim made a full recovery. He is blind, unfortunately, but he hasn't let that stop him whatsoever. Azim does have a low functioning thyroid, and requires medication daily, but he takes it like a pro! He is now around 2yrs old, and weighs 80lbs! He is a loving, happy boy, who is just so grateful to be here. Azim is very treat motivated. You have cookies? He prances or sits like a good boy, waiting until you hand it to him. Azim has fully gained his strength back, and does need a strong handler to continue to work with him. This guy is nothing short of a miracle, and deserves the best home in the world! If you are familiar with blind/special needs dogs, and think you would like to meet Azim, please contact the wonderful people with Sandi Paws Rescue, who, without their help, Azim wouldn't be here today. Thank you for your interest in a Sandi Paws Rescue, Inc. Please visit our site at sandipaws.org for more information on our organization or to fill out an application to adopt one of our pets. You can find information for volunteering on our site as well.

Additional adoption info
See our adoption process at www.sandipaws.org/adoption
A successful adoption depends on the selection of the right pet for your household and your understanding of your responsibility of adopting a rescued animal. Our adoption procedures have been designed to make sure all rescued Sandi Paws pets are placed in an appropriate, loving forever home, and to make sure all adopters find the right fit for their family. Prior to adoption, all dogs and cats will be given all age-appropriate vaccinations, including rabies, kennel cough, parvo and distemper, spaying/neutering, intestinal deworming, heartworm testing/treatment, microchipping, and monthly heartworm medication and flea prevention.
Note: We will adopt pets outside of Wisconsin if we can do necessary background and reference checks and the adopters agree to provide necessary follow up information. Also, the adopting family must agree to travel to pick up the pet and agree to transport them back to Wisconsin if they need to be returned at any time.
