My story

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

Copper is an 8-10 year old Pomeranian mix that was found as a stray and landed at one of our local shelters. He came to us with a handful of medical issues as a neglected senior dog. His biggest issue was his eyes. Copper had an underdeveloped eye and he was blind in the other one with a painful ulcer or cataract suspected from previous trauma. So both of his eyes were removed. Despite being blind, he's extremely confident, adapts easily, and learns quickly where to potty. He doesn't mind other dogs, but he prefers calmer friends. He loves cuddling with his four year human foster sibling! And while his foster family doesn't own any cats, we believe he would do great with them. Copper doesn't have any aggression, but can be reactive if there is lots of noise happening in an unfamiliar environment. He prefers calm households with predictable routines. He adores cuddling and pets. He deserves a home that will give him the best remaining years!

More about this rescue

ThisIsHouston is a rescue dedicated to helping those who cannot ask for help!

The inundation of graphic dog posts and images on social media seems to have rendered a lot of people helpless. The bystander effect has grabbed a hold of our city and it isn’t loosening its grip. Most people are not aware of the stray overpopulation problem going on in this city. The others don’t help because somebody else will. Well, we are ‘somebody else’. We have no super powers. We have no magic formula or secret that gives us the ability to do what we do. We are just an example of what can be done when people come together for a common cause and leave egos at the door. Why do we do this? Because we choose to. Because we are tired of dogs suffering needlessly. And because we refuse to live in a world where there is a choice not to help.
