My personality

My story

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

RIcky is being fostered in Chicago.

Ricky is the most perfect puppy you will ever meet! He was found abandoned on the side of the road and after being rescued it became clear he had some vision issues. His vision is severely limited, but he does not let that slow him down! He is the sweetest, smartest, most amazing puppy you will ever meet.

He loves to go on walks, play with toys, and SNUGGLE!! He can navigate his foster home well and has mastered the stairs.

He is crate trained, and almost completely potty-trained.

You seriously could not ask for a better pup!
BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Interested in adopting a BDRA dog? Simply fill out our application.

All of our adult dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and on heartworm and flea/tick preventive. All puppies are up to date on vaccinations, microchipped and on heartworm and flea/tick preventive.

We ask a $400 adoption fee. This does not begin to cover the vet work we do on our dogs, which is why we are always fundraising! For unaltered dogs (such as puppies too young to be spayed/neutered prior to adoption), we now require an additional $100 spay/neuter deposit that is refundable upon BDRA receiving proof of spay/neuter and rabies vaccination.

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.
